Senior React Native Software Engineer
About The Position
inKind is seeking a Senior React Native Engineer to join one of our cross-functional product pods focused on building intelligent, AI-powered consumer and restaurant experiences. This is not a traditional mobile engineering role. We are looking for a highly adaptable product engineer who thrives in a fast-moving environment, leverages AI tooling daily, and enjoys owning meaningful product outcomes from concept to production. You will operate inside a small, autonomous pod structure alongside product managers, designers, backend engineers, data/AI engineers, and QA partners. Each pod is responsible for rapidly shipping and iterating on customer-facing features, internal operational tools, and AI-enabled experiences that power the future of the restaurant ecosystem. You’ll play a key role in scaling our React Native platform while helping integrate modern AI workflows, LLM-powered product experiences, and AI-assisted engineering practices across the organization.
Requirements
- 5+ years of professional experience building React Native applications
- Strong expertise with Typescript and modern React architecture
- Experience working in fast-paced startup or product-led engineering environments
- Strong understanding of mobile application performance optimization
- Experience integrating REST APIs and third-party services
- Strong understanding of complex state management patterns (Redux, Zustand, React Query, Context, etc.)
- Experience working with agents, LLM tooling, or AI-assisted development workflows
- Ability to move quickly through large codebases and ambiguous technical challenges
- Strong debugging and systems-thinking capabilities
- Product-minded engineering approach with strong ownership mentality
Nice To Haves
- Experience building AI-powered product features or integrating LLM APIs
- Familiarity with vector search, recommendation systems, RAG architectures, or conversational interfaces
- Experience with React.js web applications
- Experience with native mobile development (Swift, Kotlin, Java, Objective-C, C++)
- Experience designing scalable frontend/mobile architecture
Responsibilities
- Mobile Product Development: Design, develop, and maintain high-quality React Native applications for iOS and Android. Build performant, scalable, and maintainable mobile experiences. Collaborate closely with your pod to rapidly prototype and ship new features. Partner with product and design teams to translate business goals into elegant technical solutions.
- AI-Enabled Product Experiences: Build mobile interfaces and workflows that integrate AI-powered capabilities and LLM-driven experiences. Collaborate with backend and AI engineering teams to support recommendation systems, conversational experiences, personalization, and intelligent automation. Integrate with modern AI infrastructure and APIs where appropriate. Help define best practices for AI-native mobile product experiences.
- AI-Assisted Engineering Practices: Leverage AI coding agents and modern developer tooling to accelerate engineering velocity. Evaluate and improve workflows using AI-assisted development practices. Maintain strong engineering judgment while validating AI-generated code and architectural suggestions. Contribute to engineering efficiency through automation and tooling improvements.
- Architecture & Performance: Optimize rendering, state management, app startup time, memory usage, and overall mobile performance. Work across React Native and native platform integrations when necessary. Improve application observability, reliability, and scalability. Help shape frontend architecture and technical direction across pods.
- Quality & Collaboration: Write clean, testable, well-documented Typescript code. Participate in code reviews, architecture discussions, and engineering planning. Build and maintain automated tests and CI/CD workflows. Share knowledge and mentor other engineers across the organization. Contribute to a strong engineering culture focused on ownership, speed, and continuous improvement.
