About Us

We're building a platform that connects new physicians (often just finishing residency) with jobs at hospitals or private physician practices.

We've raised a pre-seed, and have 1,500 physicians and 40 employers on our platform so far.

About the Work

We've built a basic MVP with a PHP frontend, and are now looking for a Fractional React Native Lead to own development on our native app (iOS and Android) from start to finish. The goal is to replace our current web-based frontend in the next few months.

Specifically, you'll:

• Lead all frontend development of our mobile app, both iOS and Android
  • You'll be starting from scratch
• Architect the codebase such that we can use the frontend for React-web too (down the line)
• Integrate the app directly with mobile device features like the camera and microphone
• Collaborate with our UX designer to create a well-polished experience
• Work closely with our CTO (hands-on developer), and our backend engineer

Tech Stack:

• React Native (duh!)
• Legacy PHP frontend
• PHP backend (all major API endpoints are already built and documented)

‍

About You

Required criteria:

• 8+ years writing software, including as a lead, primary, or solo engineer on a project
• Deep React Native expertise
  • you've likely architected at least 2+ React Native apps
• Experience building frontends for a consumer audience
• You resonate strongly with our engineering culture
  • Focus on great test coverage
  • Leverage AI tools (Cursor, Windsurf, etc.) wherever possible
  • Daily standups but otherwise asynchronous work
• Based in the USA / Canada only
