Senior React Native Developer (Consumer iOS App)

We're building the first version of a polished iPhone app that helps people turn the ideas, products, articles, and inspiration they save online into meaningful action. The app uses AI to intelligently organize and surface saved content in a beautiful, intuitive experience. This is a design-first product with a strong emphasis on thoughtful interactions, polished UI, and creating an app people genuinely enjoy using. We need someone who can create a beautiful interface, implement the login system, build the main screens and workflows, connect the app to AI services, and prepare it for the App Store. If the first phase goes well, there will be more work afterward. This is not an enterprise or SaaS application. The focus is on creating a beautiful, consumer-facing app with thoughtful interactions and a premium feel. Phase 1 Scope The initial project will focus on building the foundation of the app, including: Authentication Home screen Core navigation Several primary user flows Clean, responsive UI API integration (details provided after selection) If we're a great fit, there is significant additional work planned beyond this first milestone.
