Senior React Native Engineer - Consumer

Job description

ABOUT POSH We are all social creatures, but the dominant “social” companies today have evolved into digital loneliness machines, driving isolation, anxiety, and mental health challenges around the world. Human connection is lost. Posh is a beacon guiding us back. Posh enables anyone to build an IRL community based on shared interests, while connecting consumers with the communities of people just like them. Founded by event organizers who were frustrated with the growing loneliness epidemic and the tools available to build their own event brand, we’ve built the ultimate platform for launching, monetizing, and finding IRL communities of people just like you. In just 6 years, Posh has grown to a team of 70, expanded to 8M+ users, secured $70m in venture funding, and facilitated over $350M in transactions. ABOUT THE ROLE At Posh, you’ll drive the technical strategy and shape the experiences that connect millions of people through live events. As a Frontend Engineer, you’ll lead the development of highly-performant, scalable, and delightful user interfaces that power our web and mobile products. Your influence will extend beyond coding—you’ll shape frontend architecture, guide product direction, mentor senior engineers, and set the standard for frontend excellence across the organization. This is an in-person position at our New York City office in the heart of SoHo, where you’ll play a pivotal role in revolutionizing how people connect in the real world.

QUALIFICATIONS - 7-9 years of experience leading complex frontend projects at scale with significant organizational impact. - 3-4 years of deep expertise in React Native and Expo, with a strong track record of building and shipping high-quality mobile application. - Proven track record shaping frontend architecture and technical strategy for consumer-facing products. - Experience mentoring and developing senior engineers, and building frameworks for org-wide growth and knowledge sharing. - Strong collaboration skills with the ability to influence across technical, design, and product teams. - Experience with design systems, component libraries, and cross-platform interface development. - Background in consumer, social, or marketplace products a plus—especially those focused on building real-world communities.
