About the role
Job Summary:
We are seeking an experienced Frontend Engineering Manager to lead our mobile and web frontend teams across Android, iOS, React Native, and Next.js. The ideal candidate will have deep, recent hands-on React Native experience, a strong native iOS and Android development background, and production experience building or leading Next.js web applications. This role combines technical leadership, people management, and architectural decision-making to modernize our mobile platform and align it with our React-based web experience while ensuring continuity of existing functionality and user experience.
Key Responsibilities:
- Lead, mentor, and develop a team of frontend engineers working across Android, iOS, React Native, and Next.js.
- Own the technical strategy and roadmap for migrating legacy native mobile applications (Android/Kotlin/Java and iOS/Swift/Objective-C) into a unified React Native codebase, preferably using an incremental brownfield approach.
- Oversee the Next.js web frontend, including architecture decisions involving server-side rendering, static generation, client-side rendering, routing, data fetching, and web performance.
- Drive code and design-system sharing between React Native and Next.js where appropriate, including shared TypeScript business logic, API clients, design tokens, and component patterns.
- Define and enforce best practices for incremental migration while minimizing disruption to existing application functionality, performance, and release schedules.
- Collaborate with product managers, designers, and backend engineering teams to align technical execution with business and user experience goals.
- Establish CI/CD pipelines, testing strategies, and code quality standards for hybrid native/React Native applications and Next.js web applications.
- Drive decisions on native module bridging, third-party library evaluation, and platform-specific technical challenges during migration.
- Manage sprint planning, technical estimations, and delivery timelines across mobile and web initiatives.
- Conduct code reviews and provide technical guidance on architecture, performance optimization, and application stability.
- Oversee native-to-React Native integration, including navigation bridging, Turbo
- Modules/JSI, and lifecycle handoff.
- Own production monitoring, crash analytics, and performance metrics, including App Store and Play Store ratings, crash-free rates, mobile load times, Core Web Vitals, SEO health, and web performance.
- Support hiring, onboarding, and career development of mobile and web engineers.
- Stay current with Android/iOS platform updates, React Native and Next.js releases, and developments across the React ecosystem.
Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
