Who we are:
Picnic Technologies is the fastest-growing company in The Netherlands that rethinks the way people buy food! As an app-only business, customers can easily select and buy their groceries online and we deliver them for free with our sustainable, electric vehicles.
At Picnic, we use native and React Native alongside each other to provide our customers with a grocery delivery service that’s affordable, reliable, and sustainable. Now we’re looking for a React Native developer who’s excited to create exceptional products that really do make a difference to our customers—and to the online grocery shopping landscape!
Main tasks:
Why use React Native? To put it simply, using cross-platform technologies enables us to deliver more value to our customers, so it’s a no-brainer for us. What we like about React Native is that it’s an opt-out technology: it provides a useful escape hatch to native. However, we only use React Native where it makes sense; the user experience is our top priority. And don’t worry, we love type-safety so all our React Native code is written in TypeScript.
You’ll shape the strategy for integrating React Native components in our native apps, as well as define conventions and infrastructure around React (Native) development. Through close collaboration with our designers and product owners, you’ll create specifications for new features. You’ll build out our backend-driven UI framework (developed in React Native) and transition existing functionalities from native to React Native whenever possible. With your solid communication skills, you’ll train our amazing team of native engineers.
