TLI Mobile Engineer (AI-First / React Native)
- Rate
- (based on competency and experience)
Are You an "AI-First" Mobile Developer Who Can Build Apps at Warp Speed?
Do you treat AI tools (Claude, Gemini, Cursor) not just as autocomplete, but as a junior coding partner?
Can you easily shift your workflow from manually implementing tasks to "reviewing and orchestrating" entire features?
Are you a React Native expert who can quickly prototype and launch marketing experiments in hours or days, rather than weeks?
Do you have strong UI/UX sensibilities and the ability to rapidly generate polished front-end components using zero-to-UI AI tools like FigmaMake?
Can you critically evaluate AI-generated code to immediately spot hallucinations, security vulnerabilities, and anti-patterns before safely integrating them into the codebase?
Are you driven by high output and eager to leverage AI acceleration to minimize time-to-market and maximize your impact?
Can you speak and write excellent English?
If you combine strong React Native skills with AI-accelerated workflows and take pride in owning apps from prototype to production, we want to hear from you.
