Founding React Native Engineer
Traba
Posted 2 years ago
Traba is on a mission to connect workers and businesses to unlock productivity and earning potential.
We're building a marketplace focused on connecting light industrial workers to businesses with flexible open shifts. We believe people should be empowered to find work that works for them—work that is flexible, transparent, and meaningful, and available just a few taps away. We believe businesses should be empowered to fill their variable staffing needs with the most reliable workers, on demand and with ease. By connecting both, we can help unlock new levels of productivity and earning potential, and open new avenues for career growth. If this mission resonates with you, let's chat—we're looking for driven teammates who want to build the future of light industrial work alongside us.
We have raised over $3.6M to build our vision, and are proud to be backed by Founders Fund, General Catalyst, and Village Global.
We are seeking a scrappy, entrepreneurial Senior React Native Engineer to join the founding team to help build the core worker experience in our mobile app. You'll partner with our CTO, the engineering team, and our design partners to deeply understand our workers' needs, set the product roadmap, and make key product & architecture decisions that will inform the our foundational tech platform.
This position is located in Miami. We believe working together side by side is key in the early 0-1 phase of a company, and we're excited to build the next big tech company in the heart of sunny Miami.
