Mobile Application Engineer

We are working with a well-funded, early-stage technology company that's building software to modernise complex operational environments where work still relies heavily on manual processes. Following significant investment and rapid growth, they're expanding their engineering team with a Mobile Application Engineer who wants to build products from the ground up rather than simply deliver features from a backlog.

The Opportunity

This is a highly product-focused role where you'll work directly with customers, understand how they operate in the real world, and build mobile applications that solve meaningful business problems. You'll have ownership from discovery through to production, collaborating closely with engineers, product leaders and customers to shape what gets built.

What You'll Be Doing

• Building cross-platform mobile applications using React Native and TypeScript
• Designing intuitive user experiences for complex workflows
• Developing offline-first functionality with reliable synchronisation
• Working with native iOS and Android capabilities when required
• Integrating AI-powered functionality into mobile products
• Collaborating directly with customers to understand challenges and validate solutions
• Taking ownership of features from concept through deployment

What They're Looking For

• Strong commercial experience with React Native and TypeScript
• Experience shipping production mobile applications for iOS and Android
• Good understanding of native mobile development principles
• Experience consuming or building backend APIs (Python exposure is beneficial)
• Experience incorporating AI capabilities into customer-facing products
• Comfortable working in fast-paced environments with changing priorities
• Strong communication skills and a product mindset

Bonus Points

• Experience in an early-stage startup
• Founder or founding engineer background
• Experience building AI-first products
• Comfortable working with ambiguity and taking ownership without waiting for direction

Why It's Worth a Conversation

This is an opportunity to join a small, ambitious engineering team where your work will directly influence both the product and the customer experience. You'll have significant ownership, work closely with end users, and help build technology that's solving real operational challenges.
