Mobile Frontend Developer (Swift + React Native)

Location: Addis Ababa (Remote)

Position Type: Full-Time

Compensation: $5–9/hour

About the Role

We are looking for a highly skilled Mobile Frontend Developer with strong experience in both Swift and React Native to join our team.

This role is focused on building and maintaining mobile applications across both native iOS (Swift) and cross-platform (React Native + Expo) environments. You should be equally comfortable working in both stacks and able to switch between them as needed.

We are a startup — we need someone with a problem-solver mindset, who can think creatively, move fast, and take ownership. You should be comfortable working from Figma designs, shipping production apps, and using modern AI-powered development tools (Cursor, Claude Code, etc.) to accelerate your workflow.

Key Responsibilities

Build and maintain mobile applications using React Native (Expo) and Swift (iOS)
Convert Figma designs into pixel-perfect, production-ready mobile interfaces
Work across both native iOS and cross-platform mobile stacks
Manage the full iOS app lifecycle, including building, testing, and publishing to the Apple App Store
Handle Expo builds, EAS configuration, and deployment workflows
Integrate and maintain native modules when required
Collaborate with backend and product teams to deliver end-to-end features
Debug and resolve performance issues and production bugs
Contribute to architecture and technical decision-making

Required Skills & Experience

Strong, hands-on experience with React Native
Strong, hands-on experience with Expo (including EAS builds and deployment)
Strong experience with Swift (required — must be comfortable building real features in Swift)
Proven experience submitting and maintaining apps on the Apple App Store
Strong understanding of provisioning profiles, certificates, TestFlight, and App Store guidelines
Experience converting Figma designs into clean, production-ready code
Experience using AI-assisted coding tools (Cursor, Claude Code, or similar)
Strong problem-solving skills
Startup mentality — proactive, adaptable, and ownership-driven

Nice to Have

Experience with TypeScript
Backend experience (any stack)
Experience with Go
Experience with Android (Google Play Store submissions)
Familiarity with performance optimization and mobile security best practices
Experience working in early-stage startups

What We’re Looking For

Someone who is strong in both Swift and React Native (not just one)
A builder and problem solver
Someone who can move fast and figure things out independently
A developer who takes ownership and wants to prove themselves through execution

Requirements

Strong experience with React Native
Strong hands-on experience with Expo (including EAS builds and deployment)
Solid experience with Swift (required)
Proven experience submitting and maintaining apps on the Apple App Store
Strong understanding of provisioning profiles, certificates, TestFlight, and App Store review guidelines
Experience converting Figma designs into production-ready mobile UI
Experience using AI-assisted coding tools (e.g., Cursor, Claude Code, or similar IDE-integrated AI agents)
Excellent problem-solving skills
Startup mentality: proactive, adaptable, and comfortable taking ownership
