Picnic | Senior Mobile Engineer [iOS / Android / React Native] | London, UK | ONSITE or REMOTE | Full time or contract
Picnic is a new group chat app, built for close friends (<a href=").
Group chats matter, and they matter more than you might think. For billions of people, they've come to play a vital role in our most important relationships: the space online where our real friendships live. We believe the one-size-fits-all, functional apps where our group chats live today could be so much more. That's why we are on a mission to build a better home for people's favourite group chats: one that is more joyful, more intentional and more ethical.
It's an exceptionally good time to be joining our small but mighty founding team of top engineers from Facebook, Apple, Google and more. We are fresh from raising a £2.1m Seed round led by top tier VCs (announcement coming soon) and are backed by the likes of Robin Dunbar (the man behind Dunbar's number), Snapchat's 1st Engineer and many more world class operators.
We've been using React Native from day one, and while it has gotten us very far very quickly, we're starting to hit some of the roadblocks that should be familiar to anyone who has worked with React Native. We're now looking to hire someone who has a deep understanding of the underlying platforms (iOS and Android), to help us implement native components where performance and user experience matter most.
