job specification

This role requires deep, verified React Native experience. If your background is primarily React web, native iOS/Android, or backend-only, this is not the right fit.

FlyMeOut is a profitable, invite-only social travel network growing over 160% year-over-year. We run a highly selective social travel platform — and we're moving fast and expanding offerings in 2026.

We're not pre-revenue. We're not burning cash. We're growing, and we need a senior full-stack mobile engineer who can ship production React Native features on day one.

What you'll build: You'll lead development across our React Native mobile app (Expo, TypeScript, TanStack Query, Zustand) and work with our existing Node.js/TypeScript backend. The work is technically interesting — complex booking flows across yacht charters and villa rentals, payment orchestration with Stripe and Apple Pay, real-time features, and third-party API integrations. This isn't maintenance. You're shipping features that users interact with immediately.

Day to day, you'll be working on things like:

• Designing and building new features end-to-end in React Native with TypeScript
• Architecting booking and payment flows across multiple travel verticals
• Integrating with payment platforms (Stripe, Apple Pay) and partner reservation APIs
• Working with Firebase for auth, real-time data, and push notifications
• Collaborating directly with the founder on product direction and technical decisions
• Code reviews and mentoring a mid-level React Native engineer on the team

You should have:

• 5+ years shipping production React Native apps (not React web — we will verify this)
• Strong experience with Expo, TypeScript, and modern state management (TanStack Query, Zustand, or similar)
• Backend capability with Node.js — you can work with and extend our existing API layer
• Hands-on experience integrating third-party APIs, especially payment processors
• Comfort working independently in a small team where you own the outcome

Nice to have:

• Experience with travel tech, hospitality, or marketplace platforms
• Familiarity with booking/reservation systems
• Experience leading or mentoring other engineers
• Apple Pay integration experience

Why FlyMeOut:

• Profitable company with real revenue — not a cash-burning startup hoping for a runway extension
• Growing 160%+ year-over-year with a planned fundraise in summer 2026
• Fully remote — we hire across Latin America and work on overlapping timezones
• Lean team, big ownership — your input directly shapes the product
• Expanding into yacht charters, villa rentals, and restaurant reservations — you'd be building these from the ground up
• Work directly with the founder on product and technical direction
