Are you a senior React Native engineer who enjoys owning a real, mission-critical mobile app—not just shipping tickets?

Join Camplight on a production-heavy B2B2C SaaS product where the mobile application is essential to daily customer operations. This is not a greenfield demo or UI-only role — you’ll take over a complex, live React Native app relied on by millions of end users.

What you’ll be working on?

We’re working with a partner on a B2B2C SaaS platform used by 100+ paying customers and millions of end users worldwide. The mobile app is a core part of the product — when it breaks, customers can’t operate.

The app is already in production and actively used every day. The previous app owner has stepped out, and you’ll receive a proper handover before taking ownership.

Product & technical characteristics:

• 100% React Native
• Offline-first architecture
• GPS & maps functionality
• Real-time data synchronization
• Heavy integrations with backend services, algorithms, and LLM-powered features
• High production load with real-world edge cases

This is a “debug real life” type of product — you’ll deal with data consistency, performance, offline sync issues, and production incidents, not just UI flows.

Your Role

You will take full ownership of the mobile application, acting as the go-to person for everything React Native related.

Your responsibilities include:

• Owning the architecture and code quality of the React Native app
• Developing new features and maintaining existing ones
• Handling App Store / Play Store releases
• Investigating and resolving production issues
• Improving stability, performance, and developer experience
• Working closely with backend engineers and product stakeholders
• Helping shape technical decisions rather than just executing tasks

You won’t be boxed into a single feature area — you’ll touch all parts of the app.

About Camplight

We build self-organizing technical teams, offer software development services, and work with businesses and entrepreneurs to create new products.

With over 300 successful software projects, some ongoing for more than 8 years, we focus on long-term partnerships and sustainable success.

By organizing as a cooperative and following principles of self-management, we achieve 95% partner satisfaction. Transparency, trust, responsibility, collaboration, and innovation are core to how we work.

When joining Camplight, you can eventually become a co-owner of the cooperative, sharing both responsibility and rewards.

What are we looking for?

• Ownership mindset: You treat the product as your own. You care about quality, reliability, and long-term maintainability.
• React Native expertise: React Native is your main craft, not a side skill.
• Production experience: You’re comfortable debugging complex issues in live apps used by real customers.
• Strong communication: You can clearly communicate with backend engineers, product stakeholders, and the wider team.

Requirements

• Senior-level experience with React Native (several years in production apps)
• Strong understanding of mobile app architecture
• Experience with offline-first or data-sync-heavy applications
• Experience debugging production issues and performance problems
• Familiarity with App Store and Play Store release processes
• Experience working closely with backend APIs and product teams
• Comfortable working independently as the owner of a system
• Experience with GPS, maps, or geolocation-heavy apps
• Experience in startups or small, fast-moving product teams
• Exposure to real-time systems, algorithms, or AI/LLM integrations

What do we offer?

• Part-time contractor role: 3–4 days per week (~100–120 hours/month)
• Flexible working hours
• Fully remote
• Competitive contractor rate
• Clear ownership and autonomy
• Proper handover from the previous app owner
• Opportunity for longer-term collaboration beyond the initial 3 months

What does the interview process look like?

1. Initial Interview (45 minutes):
   Cultural and technical conversation with two Camplight team members. We’ll discuss your experience, ownership mindset, and how you approach real-world production problems.
2. Technical Deep Dive (choose one):
   • Homework Assignment: ~2 hours of work, followed by a 1-hour technical discussion.
   • Pair Programming Session: 2-hour live technical session focused on real-world React Native scenarios.

Regardless of the outcome, we’ll provide constructive feedback to support your growth.
