React Native Engineer
Hi, we’re Lively. Are you?
We’re revolutionizing hearing care. We’re on a mission to empower tens of millions of people to hear better through affordable, convenient, hearing care — at a fraction of the cost thanks to telemedicine. We’re led by a crew of enormously skilled thinkers, creators, and doers. And we’re as collaborative and compassionate as we are ambitious. Built In NYC just named us one of the “best small companies to work for”. Come help us lose the “small”!
So, why Lively?
There’s a million companies you could take your talents to. What makes Lively a good match? We’re a series B start-up with an eager, empowered customer base that’s growing exponentially. And we’re young enough, and small enough, where you could make a big, tangible difference — a real impact. Where are we from? We come to hearing care by way of Amazon, Facebook, 1stdibs, among other start-ups. And we’re surrounded by a world-class advisory board and audiology team.
About the role.
We are looking for an ambitious React Native Engineer. As an early employee, you’ll have the chance to define and work on the foundational elements of the company and work closely with the founding team. The ideal candidate is passionate about creating a seamless customer experience and is able to drive and execute end-to-end mobile customer journeys using React Native, TypeScript, and GraphQL. You will plan, architect, build, and own features in our React Native app, which integrates both Lively’s telehealth services and controls for Lively’s cutting-edge bluetooth-enabled hearing aids into a single unified whole. You will partner with design to bring our customer touch-points to life and will be responsible for the technical execution of mobile projects through hands-on development and prototyping. In other words, you will bridge the gap between graphical design and technical implementation to create a user-friendly product.
What you’ll do.
- Develop new user-facing features for our cross-platform mobile app.
- Collaborate with Product and Design to create a seamless user experience.
- Contribute to the architecture, development, and maintenance of our mobile app.
- Build reusable code and libraries for future use.
- Leverage native APIs for deep integrations with both platforms.
- Ensure the technical feasibility of UI/UX designs.
What you’ll bring.
- B.S. in Computer Science or equivalent experience.
- 3+ years of experience working as a Frontend, Mobile, or Fullstack Engineer.
- Experience with React Native or React.JS and modern JavaScript libraries and tooling.
- Demonstrated design and UX sensibilities.
- Familiarity with Mobile UI/UX design principles and best practices.
Why we love it here.
Changing lives and revolutionizing hearing care sounds like serious business. And it is. But we know how to have fun along the way. Case in point: our energizing weekly all-hands meetings where you’ll smile so much your smile muscles might get sore.
It helps that we have such a diverse crew — so you’ll fit right in. The Lively family includes actors, sommeliers, top-chefs, a former professional rollerblader (yep, that’s a thing), dancers, black belts, filmmakers and countless four-legged furry sidekicks.
Even our benefits are Lively.
- You’re worth it. Our compensation is competitive and our 401k plan includes a 4% match.
- Take care of yourself and your loved ones. We offer excellent medical, vision, and dental insurance and contribute generously to it. Adding a new member to your family? We also provide 12-weeks paid parental leave.
- Fill that well! Whether you check out America’s natural treasures or just veg out on your couch, enjoy your paid time off. We encourage time off.
- Nomnom on us. Lively offers a weekly lunch stipend. (Pro tip: Groceries count.)
