[Hiring] React Native Developer @LG Electronics

Role Description

We're looking for a contract React Native Developer to own the front-end of a new AI-powered B2B SaaS product currently in active development. This is a 3-month full-time contract with potential for extension based on project success.

You'll be embedded in a small founding team, working closely with back-end engineers and an AI/ML lead. This isn't a feature-factory role — you'll have real influence over the UX, component architecture, and mobile experience from the ground up.

We expect you to use AI tools aggressively in your own workflow — Cursor, Claude, whatever ships faster. That said, you own every line that goes to production: code should be clean, readable, and something your teammates can maintain without you.

What You'll Do

• Build and own the React Native (Expo) front-end across iOS and Android from early-stage through pilot launch
• Implement AI-driven conversational UI flows, onboarding experiences, and data-rich dashboards
• Integrate with a Node.js/Supabase back-end via REST and real-time subscriptions
• Collaborate with design to translate Figma prototypes into polished, performant mobile screens
• Instrument product analytics and contribute to a culture of fast, data-informed iteration
• Participate in lightweight code review and maintain clean, well-structured component libraries

Qualifications

• Deep, hands-on experience with React Native and Expo — you've shipped Expo-managed workflow apps to the App Store and Google Play
• Strong command of TypeScript, React hooks, and state management (Zustand, Jotai, or similar)
• You've built production UIs that consume LLM APIs — you understand streaming, token latency, error handling, and how to design interactions that don't fall apart when the AI is slow or wrong
• Comfort working across the stack — you can read Supabase queries, understand API contracts, and debug end-to-end without hand-holding
• AI-accelerated workflow — you actively use tools like Cursor or GitHub Copilot and can demonstrate meaningfully faster output because of it
• A portfolio of real shipped products, not just side projects

Nice-to-Haves

• Experience with PostHog for product analytics and feature flags
• Founder or early-stage startup experience — you know what it means to make decisions with incomplete information and move fast
• Familiarity with Supabase real-time subscriptions or Row-Level Security (RLS)
• Eye for UX detail — you've pushed back on designs because you knew the implementation would hurt the user

Tech Stack

• React Native
• Expo
• TypeScript
• Node.js
• Supabase (Postgres + Auth)
• OpenAI/Anthropic APIs
• PostHog
• Figma
• Cursor

Compensation & Terms

• Hourly pay rate of around $75–95/hr, depending on demonstrated experience and portfolio quality
• Expectation is for a 3-month contract duration (around 35 hrs/week); extension based on project success
• Remote-friendly; preference for SF Bay Area candidates who can meet in person periodically

Benefits

• No-cost employee premiums for you and your eligible dependents for competitive medical, dental, vision and prescription benefits.
• Auto enrollment with immediate vesting of competitive company matching contributions in a 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan with several investment options.
• Generous Paid Time Off program that includes company holidays and a combined bank of paid sick and vacation time.
• Performance based Short-Term Incentives (varies by role).
• Access to confidential mental health resources to help you and your loved ones improve your quality of life.
• Personal fitness goal incentives.
• Family oriented benefits such as paid parental leave and support for families raising children with learning, social, behavioral challenges, or developmental disabilities.
• Group Rate Life and Disability Insurance.
