About the Product

We are a fintech building a modern remittance app for the African diaspora in the US & Canada. We're shipping a polished Expo (React Native) mobile experience on top of a NestJS + Prisma + Postgres backend, with a strong focus on security, compliance, and UX.

The Role

We're looking for a junior/co‑developer who ships clean, type‑safe RN features, is comfortable integrating APIs, and can peek into our NestJS code when needed. You'll work directly with the founder/lead engineer, iterate quickly, and put features in users' hands via EAS.

What You'll Do

  • Implement remittance UX (recipients, amounts, FX/fees, confirm, etc)
  • Integrate REST APIs with TanStack Query (loading/error/empty, caching, optimistic updates)
  • Implement KYC onboarding (OTP, liveness/doc handoff), tiered limits
  • Secure auth (token lifecycle, refresh; SecureStore; optional biometric unlock)
  • Add push notifications & deep links; ship with EAS Build/Submit/Updates
  • Triage Android/iOS build issues; contribute small NestJS/Prisma tasks under guidance

Must‑Haves

  • 2+ year with React Native + Expo using TypeScript (portfolio/personal projects welcome)
  • Comfortable with Expo modules (SecureStore, Notifications, Updates) and a router
  • Solid API integration patterns with React Query (queries/mutations)
  • EAS basics and AAB vs APK know‑how; Git/GitHub workflow; pnpm familiarity
  • Security mindset around tokens/PII and transport security

Nice‑to‑Haves

  • NestJS/Prisma/Postgres, , Redis/queues
  • Fintech/regulatory exposure (KYC/AML, FINTRAC/OFAC awareness)
  • Practical certificate pinning and device integrity concepts
  • Testing (Jest, React Native Testing Library), Detox/Maestro
  • UI craft (Tailwind‑RN/Styled Components), Figma handoff

Tech We Use
