our existing React Native development as well
● Ability to give clarity and communicate well with the team, including
Product, Backend and Dev-Ops (if and when needed)
● Ability to use profiling tools well, getting to root causes of bugs fast
● Ability to pick and work on adjacent technologies if and when
required (Eg: If the best performance monitoring solution needs a
basic firebase setup, that should not be a blocker for you to go ahead
and do so)
● Maintain code and write automated tests to ensure the product is of
the highest quality.
● Reach out to the open-source community to encourage and help
implement mission-critical software fixes

● Inquisitiveness to understand the system as a whole, and not only be
stuck to your domain of expertise (Eg: Asking questions like why does
this particular response take so much time as compared to others,
and brainstorming with the backend engineer on how to improve on
it)
Perks:
● Competitive Salary
● Health insurance for you and your family
● Work timings - You are the master of your time. However, with great
freedom comes great responsibility. If you have committed
something to the team, we expect that you will give it your best to
