- Design and implement the full push notification layer, including deep links and campaign landing flows.
- Build and maintain new features together with backend engineers.
- Work with UI/UX designers to assess feasibility and deliver high-quality UX.
- Own caching strategy, content-fetching architecture, and rendering performance for an app used by hundreds of thousands of people daily.
- Implement event tracking that supports personalisation decisions, A/B testing, and experimentation.
- Write idiomatic, well-tested React Native code with unit and component coverage as standard practice.
- Manage iOS and Android release cycles and store submissions.

- English C1+ — written and spoken; direct communication with an international client team is a hard requirement.
