What a React Native developer does on our teams
A React Native developer builds and releases your iOS and Android apps from one TypeScript codebase. They handle navigation, offline storage, push notifications and payments, write native Swift or Kotlin modules where the platform requires it, and own store submissions under your accounts. Our React Native work includes LogFish, an offline-first app with Mapbox GPS tracking and Stripe, Apple and Google payments, and Treasure Island AI, an AI consultation app with voice input that went from prototype to store release in six months.
How we assess React Native developers
- Architecture: navigation, state, offline storage and how the app behaves with no network
- Native work: writing a native module, permissions, background tasks and the new architecture
- Quality: performance on mid-range Android devices, crash monitoring and end-to-end tests
- Sample task: build a list and detail flow with offline caching and a camera feature in four hours

SolasEnterprise · OperationsHiring React Native developers, answered.
Expo or bare React Native?
Expo for most new apps, because cloud builds and over-the-air updates save time. We use a bare workflow or custom native modules when a hardware SDK or platform feature needs it.
Can they upgrade an old React Native app?
Yes. We upgrade version by version, replace abandoned libraries and move to the new architecture, with a release after each step.
React Native or Flutter?
React Native when your team or web product already uses React; Flutter for design-heavy consumer apps. Our blog has a full comparison.
