React Native Freelance Developer

Job description

Available to work remotely from LATAM

The job proposal

At Aerolab, we have a user-centered approach to create digital products: mobile apps, websites, interfaces, you name it.

We are always evolving and finding new ways of doing things. All our processes are in constant iteration, and our focus is on learning.

You will have the opportunity to work on projects of different sizes and verticals so that you can grow, learn, make mistakes (we embrace mistakes), and fully develop your talent.

Your job responsibilities include

• Create and evolve mobile products for startups and global brands using React Native.

• Craft incredible product experiences and interfaces for iOS and Android apps.

• Develop high-quality React Native applications using JavaScript/TypeScript, modern React patterns, and common mobile libraries.

• Work with native capabilities (navigation, deep links, push notifications, device permissions, etc.) and integrate with third-party SDKs and APIs.

• Collaborate with backend teams to integrate REST/GraphQL APIs and contribute to API design when needed.

• Ensure great performance, smooth animations, and high perceived quality on a wide range of devices.

• Be proactive in documenting your own implementations and technical decisions.

• Conduct regular code reviews with team members.

• Engage in the design process by proposing technologies and solutions for each product.

• Collaborate and work alongside project managers, designers, and other developers to create products that you can feel proud of.

• Support less experienced developers in the process, sharing knowledge and best practices.

Job requirements What do we expect from you?

• Strong expertise in JavaScript or TypeScript and the ability to build applications from scratch with sound code design patterns.

• Solid experience building and shipping mobile apps with React Native (iOS and/or Android), ideally in production for real users.

• Deep knowledge of React fundamentals and advanced patterns, plus experience with state management (Context, Redux, Zustand, or similar).

• Strong UI skills: able to translate Figma designs into pixel-perfect interfaces, responsive layouts, and smooth animations using React Native styling solutions.

• Experience integrating mobile apps with APIs and handling data persistence (AsyncStorage or similar; experience with SQLite/Realm is a plus).

• Experience with unit and integration testing in the React Native ecosystem (Jest, React Native Testing Library, or similar).

• Familiarity with Agile methodology and the ability to apply it in a team setting.

• A keen eye for design and the ability to implement interfaces and microinteractions that feel polished across different devices and screen sizes.

• Intermediate English (oral and written) to communicate with clients and teammates.

Nice to have:

• Experience publishing and maintaining apps in the App Store and/or Google Play.

• Experience working with mobile performance optimization (bundle size, startup time, memory usage, etc.).

• Experience with push notification services, analytics, and crash reporting tools (Firebase, Sentry, Segment, etc.).

• Experience with CI/CD for mobile apps (Fastlane, EAS, Bitrise, or similar).

• Previous work with accessibility (a11y) on mobile interfaces.

• Experience integrating projects with a CMS or backend-for-frontend architecture.

• Infrastructure knowledge (Docker, AWS, or similar) or experience collaborating closely with backend/infrastructure teams.

• Strong sense of taste and an eye for design; averse to visual misalignments.

• Willingness to contribute diverse knowledge and offer a unique perspective.

What are you going to find at Aerolab?

• The opportunity to work on products of different industries, having direct contact with the client.

• Spaces designed to give feedback and propose improvements and changes.

• Aerolab is a member of SoDA, a global network of leading digital agencies.
