Role Overview

We are looking for a Frontend Tech Lead who can own and scale our React Native frontend. You will design and build real-time user experiences, handle WebSocket-based systems, and deeply understand how things work on Android and iOS at the infra level.

You will take end-to-end ownership of frontend architecture, performance, and reliability.

Responsibilities

• Lead frontend architecture for a real-time, multiplayer system
• Build and optimize WebSocket-heavy flows (live games, matchmaking, events)
• Own performance, latency, and UI consistency across Android, iOS, and Web
• Design state management for real-time updates and edge cases
• Debug complex production issues across devices and OS versions
• Work closely with backend and product teams on system design
• Set best practices, code standards, and review frontend PRs
• Mentor frontend engineers and help them grow

Requirements

• 47 years of frontend experience with strong ownership mindset
• Deep experience with React Native (production apps, not demos)
• Hands-on experience building real-time systems using WebSockets
• Strong understanding of Android and iOS internals (threads, memory, lifecycle, background behavior)
• Experience handling performance issues, re-renders, and frame drops
• Good understanding of networking, retries, reconnection logic, and edge cases
• Experience with animations, gestures, and high-FPS UI is a big plus
