Lead frontend development for native iOS and Android apps using React Native. Turn Figma designs into high-performance screens, ship end-to-end releases to App Store and Google Play, optimize performance and startup time, design architecture and state management, own code quality and reviews, implement rich animations and gestures, integrate APIs and AI features, and maintain analytics, logging, and monitoring.
Sequencing is building the interface between humanity and its DNA.
Using clinical-grade whole genome sequencing, AI, and a rapidly expanding ecosystem of genomic applications, we help people better understand themselves, their health, and their future through their DNA.
The human genome is one of the most valuable and underutilized resources in the world. Our mission is to transform the human genome into a lifelong source of personalized guidance and build the trusted home for every genome on Earth.
As the world’s largest direct-to-consumer whole genome sequencing platform, Sequencing is helping define the future of AI-powered personalized health.
We’re a profitable, venture-backed, fully remote company building category-defining products that help people better understand themselves through their DNA.
We are hiring a Senior React Native Engineer to lead frontend work on our iOS and Android apps. You report into Engineering and partner daily with product, design, backend, and AI teams to ship features end to end. This is an IC3, initiative-level role with high autonomy and no direct reports. Your work puts clear, personalized health insights from a person's genome right in their pocket, so more people can understand their DNA and outsmart their genes.
