Manage and troubleshoot native build pipelines using Expo prebuild, Xcode archives, EAS Build, CocoaPods
Collaborate with product and design teams to deliver intuitive, performant user experiences
Leverage AI-assisted development tools (e.g., Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot) to accelerate development while maintaining high code quality

Required Qualifications:

4+ years of experience building and shipping mobile applications using React Native and/or Expo

Preferred Qualifications:

Experience integrating AI/ML APIs, particularly vision-based models
Familiarity with building or extending Expo native modules (Swift/Kotlin bridging)
Experience with Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) device communication
Knowledge of OAuth2 / authentication flows (e.g., Auth0) in mobile environments
Experience building offline-capable or sync-heavy applications
