Define and execute a strong mobile testing strategy (unit, integration, and end‑to‑end tests)
Champion code quality through clean code, reviews, documentation, and best practices
Monitor, measure, and improve app performance, stability, and scalability
Partner with cross‑functional teams (design, backend, QA, product) to ship features end‑to‑end
Continuously identify opportunities to improve development processes and tools
What We’re Looking For
Proven experience building production-grade mobile applications from scratch
Expert in React Native + TypeScript, with deep frontend knowledge
Strong understanding of mobile performance, security, and UX best practices
Comfortable making technical decisions and driving standards
Experience setting up CI/CD pipelines and automated testing workflows
Independent, proactive, and able to thrive in a startup environment
Passionate about fintech, security, and building scalable products
Minimum 5 years of mobile development experience, ideally with full lifecycle experience from scratch to production
Experience as a founding or early mobile engineer at a fintech or high-growth startup is a strong plus
Familiarity with cross-platform challenges and optimizing for both iOS and Android
Why Us?
We recently raised $39 million in our Series A (led by Accel), positioning the company for major growth and giving you a rare chance to join while things are still moving fast
We're building a fully-licensed programmable bank, rearchitecting how money moves between businesses, across borders, and between traditional and digital finance
We ship fast, think deeply, and expect everyone to have high ownership
