SENIOR REACT NATIVE DEVELOPER

Department: Operations & Delivery

Reports to: Technical Lead

WHO PLATFORM45 IS

We are responsible for code changing the lives of people around the world, every day. We solve complex problems and build big ideas. We believe in the ability of technology to make the world a better place; we’re driven to rip through conformity and create new solutions, smarter habits. We know why we’re here: To unleash the potential of people through the power of technology. We are people multiplied by the power of tech and together we are changing the world.

If the above resonates with you, then you’ve come to the right place! Read on.

CONTEXT | THE ROLE

Being a developer is not just about the ‘code’. At Platform45, our developers are all-rounders who can write exceptional, well-designed, and testable code but also collaborate effectively within their team and with others. Over and above the technical know-how, you’ll need good verbal and written skills as you build up relationships with our clients. At Platform45, we treat our clients like partners - they’re an important part of the team and we strive to work together to build something beautiful. As a senior developer, it’s always important to keep learning, whether that means new language platforms, keeping ahead of industry trends and methodologies, or other facets of the tech stack - our goal is to develop the best products to solve our client’s needs.

ROLE RESPONSIBILITIES | THE WHAT & THE HOW

The Essentials

Software Development

Lead the design, development, implementation, and maintenance of high-quality cross-platform mobile applications that meet client requirements and industry standards.

Technical Leadership

Provide technical expertise and guidance to development teams, ensuring adherence to best practices, coding standards, and architectural principles.

The ability to take full responsibility for a project.

Being able to problem-solve and self-correct where needed.

Solution Architecture

Collaborate with stakeholders to define system architecture, identify technical requirements, and design innovative solutions that address complex business challenges.

Collaboration

Collaborate with product managers, UX/UI designers, and backend developers to define and implement new features and enhance existing ones.

Code Review and Quality Assurance

Conduct code reviews, perform thorough testing, and implement quality assurance processes to ensure the reliability, performance, and security of software applications.

Write unit and integration tests to ensure app quality and reliability, and optimize performance for different devices.

Requirement Analysis

Work closely with clients to understand their needs, gather requirements, and propose technical solutions that align with their objectives and budget constraints.

Continuous Improvement

Stay updated on emerging technologies, industry trends, and best practices in software development, and leverage this knowledge to enhance our development standards, processes, and capabilities.

Mentoring:

Provide mentorship of junior / less experienced developers assisting them in growing their technical expertise and providing them with guidance on adherence to best practices, coding standards, and architectural principles.

Documentation:

Strong documentation practices that prioritize practical value over exhaustive detail are essential: Maintaining clear, purposeful documentation focused on architectural decisions, system boundaries, and integration points that future team members will actually need, while avoiding the creating docs that quickly become outdated or remain unread.

Technical Requirements

Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field, or provable, self-taught development skills with a good understanding of how systems work.

7+ years of work experience in mobile application development, with a strong focus on React Native.

Experience with other mobile frameworks (e.g., Flutter (Dart), Swift, Kotlin).

Expertise in mobile app architecture, design patterns (e.g., BLoC, MVC, MVVM), and state management techniques.

Knowledge of automated testing frameworks for React Native applications (e.g., React Native Testing Library (RNTL), Maestro, Jest, Detox, etc.).

Familiarity with cloud services (e.g., Firebase, AWS, Heroku) and their integration into mobile applications.

Understanding of performance optimization techniques for mobile applications.

Expertise in integrating RESTful APIs and managing third-party libraries.

Advanced Git workflow management and experience implementing version control and CI best practices

Proven track record of delivering successful applications to the App Store and Google Play Store.

Having experience working within a high-growth tech startup would be an advantage.

Have brilliant problem-solving abilities that take product design, process, and technical aspects into account.

Have the ability to clearly articulate solutions for a technical and non-technical audience.

Critical Competencies

You have an entrepreneurial mindset and can understand the business value of a project.

You have the ability to research and develop new products and modifications to existing software when needed.

You are someone who is motivated, energetic, and always focussed on the task at hand.

A strategic thinker who can work under pressure, independently problem solve, and draw knowledge from a broad range of experiences.

A proactive, continuous, and quick learner who is genuinely excited about industry trends and has a passion for technology and knowledge.

A resourceful, ‘big-picture’ thinker who considers how the code that is written will have an impact later on.

Good communication and teamwork are critical - you’ll not only be dealing with developers but also designers, product owners, clients, and other key stakeholders.

Play a mentorship role to our interns, juniors, and other less-experienced engineers.
