Assist in identifying and correcting bottlenecks and fixing bugs in mobile applications
Help maintain code quality, organization, and automation within the mobile codebase
Support integration of mobile applications with back-end services via RESTful APIs
Assist with implementing push notifications, offline storage, and cloud messaging features
Actively participate in all team Agile ceremonies (stand-ups, sprint planning, retrospectives), contributing to on-time and high-quality delivery
Engage with developers across various disciplines (Android, iOS, APIs, Web) to learn and share knowledge
Assist senior engineers in reviewing merge/pull requests and ensuring code quality standards
Identify technical obstacles early and work closely with the team to find creative solutions
Remain an active learner in all technologies related to cross-platform mobile development (React, React Native, TypeScript, JavaScript, Expo, Capacitor, etc.)

What you need to have

Currently enrolled in a Bachelor's or Master's degree program in: Computer Science, Software Engineering, Information Technology, or a related technical field
Must have completed at least 2 years of coursework (rising Junior or Senior preferred)
Minimum GPA of 3.5 preferred

Proficiency in JavaScript and/or TypeScript
Familiarity with React or similar component-based UI frameworks
Basic understanding of HTML5, CSS3, and modern web technologies
Familiarity with RESTful APIs and how mobile apps connect to back-end services
Experience with Git version control
Understanding of basic UI/UX standards and mobile design principles (both Apple's Human Interface Guidelines and Google's Material Design)
Strong communication skills, both spoken and written
Ability to work collaboratively in a team-oriented environment

What we'd like you to have

Prior project or coursework experience building mobile apps using Expo (React Native) or Capacitor
