About the role
Sanity Check
- This role is remote in Canada. Or in-person in San Francisco.
- We can only sponsor a TN Visa if you come to the San Francisco office (you are a Canadian citizen moving to the US).
- If you are remote in Canada, you must be a Canadian Citizen or a permanent resident; we will not sponsor your visa.
About the Role
This isn't a role where you'll be tweaking padding on someone else's components or shipping reskins of web flows wrapped in a WebView. You'll own our mobile app end-to-end — design and code — working directly with the founders to ship native experiences that move money in the real world.
Our app is a bare-workflow React Native build with native modules for NFC tap-to-pay, biometric auth, and deep integrations with our payments backend. No Expo. The bridge, TurboModules, and platform-specific build pipelines are part of your job, not someone else's. We build inside Cursor, manage work in Linear, and use AI tooling as a core part of how we write and ship — not as a gimmick.
If you can't show us apps you've personally designed and shipped, this isn't your role. We're not looking for a frontend engineer who "cares about design." We're looking for someone who would have been a designer in another life and learned to code so they could ship their own work without compromise.
What You'll Actually Do
- Own the Truss mobile app — design and code, from Figma to App Store, from pixel decisions to native module work
- Ship features that field workers actually use in the dirt and rain — tap-to-pay, card management, transaction flows, onboarding
- Work in the native layer when you need to — Swift/Kotlin bridge code, TurboModules, Fabric, platform build tooling
- Drive design system decisions for the mobile app and push them back into our broader product surface where it makes sense
- Use Cursor and AI-assisted workflows daily, including for the parts of native mobile development where the tooling is genuinely behind (you'll help us push it forward)
