Senior React Native Engineer

Washmen


Date: 3 weeks ago
City: Dubai
Contract type: Full time

We’re looking for a Senior React Native engineer (7+ years) who’s solved real mobile platform challenges in production.


At Washmen, our customer app isn’t just another e-commerce interface—it’s a high-volume, multi-service platform processing thousands of daily orders with complex orchestration requirements. We need someone who’s already debugged production memory issues with native profilers, built custom bridges when off-the-shelf solutions failed, and made architectural decisions that scaled.


What we’re NOT looking for: Junior developers eager to learn React Native, or web developers transitioning to mobile.


What we ARE looking for: Engineers who’ve shipped apps with published App Store/Play Store experience, can immediately contribute to discussions around performance optimization, native module development, and mobile-specific constraints.


If you’ve led mobile architecture decisions in production environments and have battle scars from React Native at scale—let’s talk. 


Job Description:Responsibilities

  • Design and build high-performance mobile applications using React Native for iOS and Android.
  • Build and maintain custom native modules in Swift/Objective-C (iOS) and Kotlin/Java (Android) when JavaScript isn’t enough.
  • Debug and optimize native-level performance issues using Xcode Instruments and Android Studio Profiler. Handle crashes, memory leaks, and platform-specific problems.
  • Integrate third-party native SDKs and handle OS updates across both platforms.
  • Manage API integration (REST/GraphQL) and state management using React Query, with focus on caching and error handling.
  • Translate designs into pixel-perfect UIs that work seamlessly on both platforms.
  • Write testable code with unit, integration, and E2E tests (Jest, Appium).Mentor teammates through code reviews and pair programming.


Required Skills

  • Native Expertise (Critical):
  • Solid iOS (Swift/Objective-C) and Android (Kotlin/Java) fundamentals
  • 7+ Experience building custom native modules and React Native bridges
  • Deep understanding of React Native architecture (New Architecture, JSI, Turbo Modules)
  • Strong debugging skills with native profilers and crash analysis tools


React Native:

  • Expert-level React Native development
  • TypeScript, React Query, and modern state management
  • Performance optimization and memory management
  • Mobile-specific constraints (battery, network, memory)
  • Other:
  • API integration (REST/GraphQL)
  • Testing frameworks (Jest, React Testing Library, Detox)
  • Design implementation from Figma
  • App Store/Play Store release process
  • Security best practices (OWASP, secure storage)


 Competitive Global Salary & Benefits

  • At Washmen, we recognize the value of top talent, no matter where you are located. We offer a competitive, tax-free salary package aligned with international market standards for remote roles, ensuring fair and attractive compensation across regions.
  • In addition to salary, remote employees enjoy:
