Senior React Native Engineer
Pollen
Pollen's has all the best experiences for young people in one place, and is changing the game in live music, travel and youth culture.
Our travel sales ahead of 2021 are booming in spite of COVID-19, which is down to our curated travel offering - we put together blockbuster artists, the most exciting destinations and the best hotels to create an incredible experience for our members. We have long-running partnerships with the biggest brands in entertainment such as Live Nation and Universal Music Group, have raised over $120M to date, have offices in London, Wroclaw and across North America and ranked 4th in the Sunday Times fastest growing tech companies of 2020.
In the first 12 months you will:
- Join the In Destination team at this exciting time when they’ve just released the MVP version of our "In Destination" app. Our customers use the app when they're on the experience (in destination) to find the route to their hotel, see details of their booking including the schedule of events
- Contribute to the team and company success by using your React Native skills and experience of releasing apps through the App Store and Google Play. The app is currently iOS only, but we have making it available on Android devices on our roadmap
- Collaborate with product, design and other teams to gain sufficient business understanding to serve the needs of our customers and to support your team members in delivering solutions
- Balance the trade-offs of delivering sustainable code that provides an excellent customer experience in a fast-paced startup environment
- Model good leadership behaviour by engaging in peer to peer feedback and code reviews to foster a healthy, collaborative engineering culture as measured by Spotify-style squad health checks
- Collaborative with the team to write well tested code - it would be great if you have experience of writing unit tests, integration tests and end to end tests. You’ll use test automation and agile practices to deliver features continuously to production, measured by feedback and daily releases going smoothly
- Be trusted with access to all of our production systems and improve our DevOps culture by participating in daily releases and technical customer support rota.
