Above all, you would be the owner of the app side of things. Drive it to success. That will be the goal.

We are tech/langugage agnostic when it comes to developers, so the only hard requirement is to be smart and passionate. That being said, having the skills below will be an advantage:

• Experience working with Flutter and/or Dart
• Experience with React/React Native (makes it easier to pick up flutter)
• Experience with Native app development (sooner or later you might get to a point where you need to write native modules as well)

• Impact: you can prioritize your time to build what will give users superpowers or wow them.
• Learning: learning and sharing knowledge makes you happy. At Blend, this holds true as a team, with machine learning, and with our users.
