Through integrations with HR systems, payroll providers, banks, and investment platforms, we help companies offer modern, compliant financial wellness solutions to their employees.

Role Description

This is a full-time, remote role for a Frontend Developer building and owning features across our web app (React.js) and mobile app (React Native). This is a high-ownership role, you'll work closely with product and design, not just implementing tickets, but questioning, improving, and proposing better ones.

We value engineers who are

• Adaptive, priorities shift and requirements evolve, and you adjust without losing momentum
• Constantly learning and improving their technical skills
• Comfortable using modern engineering and AI tools daily to improve efficiency and execution, and bring ideas on using them better
• Genuinely curious about the product, not just the ticket
• Opinionated in a good way, bringing ideas and pushing back when something can be better
• Strong communicators across technical and design teams

Responsibilities

• Build and ship features across our React web app and React Native mobile app
• Own features end to end, from technical approach through implementation, testing, and release
• Build bilingual (Arabic + English) interfaces with full RTL support
• Integrate REST APIs with careful handling of auth, error/loading states, and the correctness and security standards expected in a regulated financial product
• Write and maintain automated tests as part of "done"
• Improve frontend architecture, code quality, and engineering standards; participate in code reviews
• Help shape technical decisions as we scale the platform

Required

• 4+ years of production frontend experience
• Strong, hands-on production experience with React.js
• Strong, hands-on production experience with React Native (shipped apps to the App Store and/or Google Play)
• Solid frontend fundamentals: state management, performance, API integration, and testing
• Proficiency with REST APIs, modern frontend tooling, and TypeScript
• Strong CSS/SCSS and component-based styling skills
• Experience writing automated tests and working in a Git-based, code-review workflow
• Strong ownership mindset; able to work independently in a remote, fast-moving environment
• Good async communication skills across time zones
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent practical experience

Pluses

• Experience building Arabic / RTL / bilingual applications
• Experience with the Expo ecosystem and native iOS/Android release pipelines
• Experience with real-time features (WebSockets) and native device capabilities such as secure storage and biometric authentication
• Experience in fintech, payments, or other regulated industries

This role probably isn't for you if

• You aren't comfortable with some level of ambiguity
• You default to large rewrites when the problem needs solving in days
• You optimize for architectural purity over learning from real users
• You need a lot of structure or guidance to do your best work

Why join

• Your work directly shapes the product experience for hundreds of thousands of users
• Small, high-caliber team — minimal bureaucracy, fast feedback loops, clear business impact
• High autonomy and real ownership from day one
• A seat at the table in defining how frontend engineering evolves here
• Work from anywhere
