Job Description

This role offers the opportunity to define and lead hybrid mobile delivery within a high-scale mobile engineering organisation serving millions of users. As the organisation continues to evolve its native iOS and Android applications, React Native and WebView-based journeys are being explored to accelerate delivery, improve reuse, and unlock configuration-driven experiences.



We’re seeking an experienced React Native Engineering Lead with strong architectural judgement and hands-on capability. You will own the hybrid mobile strategy across platforms, working closely with iOS and Android Technical Architects to evaluate feasibility, define guardrails, and establish scalable patterns for hybrid delivery within a complex native ecosystem.



You will operate as a senior technical leader — embedded with engineering teams, guiding architectural decisions, running technical spikes, and ensuring hybrid approaches are introduced safely, pragmatically, and at scale.

The Impact You’ll Make

  • Own the technical direction and strategy for React Native and hybrid delivery across iOS and Android platforms.

  • Define when hybrid approaches are appropriate and where native implementation remains essential.

  • Lead feasibility assessments and proof-of-concepts to validate performance, stability, security, and developer experience.

  • Design and govern integration patterns between React Native and existing Swift and Kotlin codebases.

  • Establish standards for dependency management, packaging, versioning, and native module bridging.

  • Collaborate closely with iOS and Android Technical Architects to align on cross-platform architectural decisions.

  • Support experimentation with WebView-based and configuration-driven mobile experiences.

  • Identify and resolve architectural constraints that impact release velocity, maintainability, or reliability.

  • Provide technical leadership across multiple teams adopting hybrid approaches.

  • Mentor engineers and uplift hybrid engineering capability across the organisation.

Technology Stack & Requirements

  • Strong, hands-on experience delivering production React Native applications at scale

  • Excellent knowledge of JavaScript / TypeScript and modern React architecture.

  • Working knowledge of Swift and Kotlin, sufficient to design, review, and guide native integrations.

  • Proven experience embedding React Native within large, existing native mobile applications

  • Deep understanding of mobile performance, lifecycle management, and platform constraints.

  • Experience operating within complex, multi-team mobile environments.

Bonus Points

  • Experience scaling hybrid delivery across large engineering organisations.

  • Deep familiarity with native module bridging on both iOS and Android.

  • Experience designing governance models for shared hybrid components.

  • Experience with WebView-based mobile architectures.

  • Background in high-scale consumer or transactional mobile applications.

Location:

  • Based in London (Farringdon)
  • Hybrid: 2-3 days in the office

Some of the benefits you’ll enjoy working with us:

  • A highly competitive compensation package.
  • Medical insurance.
  • The chance to join an organization with triple digit growth that is changing the paradigm on how software products are built.
  • The opportunity to form part of an amazing, multicultural community of tech experts.
