• We are seeking a skilled Application Engineer (React Native) to join the Digital & IT organization. This role focuses on building and evolving mobile applications using React Native, while also contributing to TypeScript-based backend services and React-based web applications as part of a broader digital product ecosystem.
• You will work as part of a cross-functional product team alongside application engineers, product managers, and UX designers to deliver internal and customer-facing software. This role emphasizes strong frontend and mobile engineering fundamentals, TypeScript proficiency across the stack, and shared ownership across mobile, web, and backend components.
• Design, develop, test, and maintain mobile applications using React Native.

• Write clean, maintainable, and well-tested code across frontend and backend components.
• Participate in code reviews and technical discussions across mobile, web, and backend work.
• Support debugging and issue resolution across development and production environments.
• Contribute to documentation and shared frontend and application development practice.
• This role is an individual contributor position with close collaboration across frontend, backend, and product disciplines.

• React Native patterns and tooling are well-defined and consistently applied.
• Mobile applications are stable, performant, and maintainable.
• Mobile, web, and backend components integrate cleanly and reliably.
• Frontend and mobile defects are reduced through improved testing and code quality.
• The team gains confidence in evolving and scaling React Native solutions.
• You are viewed as a trusted contributor across mobile and application development work.

• 3–6 years of professional software development experience.
• Strong experience building mobile applications with React Native.
• Strong proficiency in TypeScript.
• Experience working with React for web applications.
• Experience contributing to backend services using Node.js-based framework.
• Familiarity with Git or another version control system.
• Ability to work collaboratively within agile, cross-functional teams.

• Experience shipping and maintaining production React Native applications.
• Experience with NestJS or Express.js for backend development.
• Familiarity with mobile testing frameworks (e.g., Jest, Appium, Detox, or similar).
• Experience with frontend and mobile test automation.
• Familiarity with containerized applications (e.g., Docker).
• Experience integrating frontend and mobile applications with REST APIs.
