Senior React Native Engineer (Hands-on Programmer)

Job Summary

We are looking for a low-level, high-output React Native Programmer. This is a role for an engineer who understands what’s happening under the hood—beyond just rendering components.

You will be responsible for the technical architecture, performance optimization, and end-to-end delivery of complex mobile systems in our Riyadh office.

Key Responsibilities

• Architect scalable front-end logic for complex, high-traffic mobile applications
• Integrate deeply with RESTful APIs, WebSockets, and third-party SDKs
• Manage the full release cycle, including CodePush deployments and App Store/Play Store submission hurdles
• Troubleshoot “hard-to-repro” bugs that require digging into native code or node_modules
• Ensure UI fidelity through high-performance animations (Reanimated 3, Moti)

Requirements

• Deep React Native Internals: Expert-level knowledge of the React Native lifecycle, the Bridge, JSI, and the New Architecture (Turbo Modules/Fabric)
• JavaScript & TypeScript: Mastery of ES6+, asynchronous programming patterns, and strict type safety
• State & Data: Advanced implementation of state management (Redux + Saga/Thunk, Zustand, or TanStack Query) and efficient data caching strategies
• Native Bridging: Proven ability to write Native Modules and navigate the communication between JS and Swift/Objective-C (iOS) or Kotlin/Java (Android)
• Performance Engineering: Experience with memory leak detection, CPU profiling using Flipper or Xcode Instruments, and optimizing app startup time (Hermes/re-renders)
• Cross-Platform Versatility: Strong plus if you have hands-on experience with Flutter (Dart) or have transitioned apps between frameworks
• Git understanding and version control
