React Native Developer

First off -> We are not looking for outsourcing companies or recruitment agencies.

We are looking for a React Native developer interested in building performant mobile apps on both the iOS and Android platforms. You will be responsible for architecting and building these applications and coordinating with the teams responsible for other layers of the product infrastructure. Building a product is a highly collaborative effort, and as such, a strong team player with a commitment to perfection is important.

Responsibilities

  • Build pixel-perfect, buttery-smooth UIs across both mobile platforms.

  • Leverage native APIs for deep integrations with both platforms.

  • Diagnose and fix bugs and performance bottlenecks for performance that feels native.

  • Reach out to the open source community to encourage and help implement mission-critical software fixes—React Native moves fast and often breaks things.

  • Maintain code and write automated tests to ensure the product is of the highest quality.

  • Experience with data security and managing PII, fin-tech, HIPAA-related data

Skills

  • Firm grasp of the JavaScript language and its nuances, including ES6+ syntax

  • Knowledge of object-oriented programming

  • Ability to write well-documented, clean Javascript code

  • Rock solid at working with third-party dependencies and debugging dependency conflicts

  • Familiarity with native build tools, like XCode, Gradle, and Android Studio

  • Understanding of REST APIs, the document request model, and offline storage

  • Experience with automated testing suites, like Jest or Mocha

  • Specific education level is not as important as your skills and ability to work on a team

How to apply

We would love to see some examples of your work, engaging, interactive apps/demos built with the skills required for the job, your GitHub account, your website (if you have one), and a cover letter with answers to at least the following questions:

  • Why do you love Laravel, Full stack dev, and what is your relationship to coffee?

  • Can you share at least one piece of work you are really proud of that aligns with the job specifications?

  • Can you briefly describe your background, how you work, what motivates you, and how you manage to work remotely?

Please send all of the above in one email to jobs@ravennainteractive.com. We promise to personally respond to every single application that includes the words “Joey Loves Jam” mentioned in the cover letter so we can easily filter out the time wasters that have not read this specification. Bonus points if you know what the reference is.

We hope to hear from you soon!
