WHY WE NEED YOU? GLAD YOU ASKED...
As a highly skilled React Native Developer, you will play a pivotal role as a valued member of a newly formed team responsible for developing a brand new state-of-the-art Weather application. This application is a sibling application to Canada's most prominent and widely used high-scale platforms, TheWeatherNetwork.com and MeteoMedia.com. We seek an individual with extensive experience in React and React Native. We place a high value on developers who possess the ability to assume ownership of projects and deliver complete, end-to-end solutions.
We are seeking a highly motivated and talented individual to join our team in creating, optimizing, and operating a new Weather application written with React Native. The successful candidate will be responsible for the development of a first-in-class next-generation Weather application. You’ll work with other team members to implement new features that interact with new services and libraries across our development ecosystem.
If you are passionate about devising creative solutions to technical challenges and are not afraid to take on new endeavors, we encourage you to apply. We are an environment that fosters innovation and embraces the latest technologies, such as Generative AI, React/React Native, GraphQL, Go, Node.js, microservices, and Kubernetes. We are a fast-paced organization committed to writing clean code with a well-defined architecture and are not afraid to engage in refactoring when necessary.
Don’t be shy -- share your GitHub repository with us! We’d love to see some of your previous work!
