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.
