Live on the App Store and Google Play. Backed by early investor traction and Dubai Government Innovation recognition, raising toward Seed in 2027.

What you'll own

Two TypeScript codebases, end to end:

• Backend — NestJS 11 GraphQL API (Apollo, code-first) on Prisma 7 + PostgreSQL, Redis, CASL-based permissions, in an Nx monorepo.
• Mobile — React Native on Expo SDK 54 (Expo Router, gluestack-ui + NativeWind, TanStack Query/Form, XState, Clerk auth, EAS Build/Update, Sentry).

What you'll do

• Finish wiring mobile screens to the live API (feed, groups, hangouts, notifications)
• Complete auth (token refresh), push notifications, and the notification dispatch pipeline
• Set up CI/CD, database migrations, and staging/production deployments
• Ship to TestFlight / Play Store and iterate directly with the founders
• Add tests where they matter and keep the architecture clean as the product scales

You're a fit if you have

• 3+ years building production apps in TypeScript
• Strong NestJS (or similar Node framework) and GraphQL experience
• Real-world React Native + Expo experience, shipped to App Store / Play Store

Nice to have

• CASL or other ability-based authorization
• XState, TanStack ecosystem, NativeWind/Tailwind
• Clerk, Sentry, EAS Update, GraphQL Codegen
• Experience with Stripe or KYC integrations

Compensation

Equity only at this stage. Salary begins once Seed closes (2027).

Why join

• Own the entire stack from day one, no legacy code, modern tooling, clear roadmap
• Direct line to the founders, your decisions shape the product
• Fully remote, any timezone, flexible hours
• Growth path to Tech Lead as the team and product scale post-Seed
