Mobile Developer - React Native

Rugged Riders is looking for a Mobile Developer to help build and grow RuggedNavigator, our rider-facing app for the off-road ATV and trail community. You'll work closely with our small product team to ship features that get riders onto trails safely and keep them connected out there. *About the Role* You'll take ownership of core features in our React Native / Expo app, working across the stack from UI to Firebase-backed data layers. This is a hands-on engineering role suited to someone who's comfortable debugging tricky issues in a live mobile app and who enjoys shipping polished, reliable software. *Required Qualifications*

• Strong experience with React Native for building cross-platform mobile applications
• Hands-on experience with Expo and the Expo workflow
• Proficiency in TypeScript
• Experience with Firebase, including Firestore
• Strong debugging skills — comfortable diagnosing issues across the app, native layers, and backend integrations

*Nice to Have*

• Experience with Bitbucket for version control
• Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines
• Mapping experience (MapLibre, Mapbox, or similar)
• Experience taking a cross-platform app through to release (App Store / Google Play)
• Experience working in Agile development environments
• Familiarity with JIRA
• UI/design sensibility and experience building polished interfaces
• Web development experience
• ATV/UTV off road riding experience

*What You'll Do*

• Build and maintain features in RuggedNavigator, our React Native/Expo rider app
• Work with Firebase/Firestore for data storage, sync, and real-time features
• Debug and resolve issues across the app to keep the rider experience smooth and reliable
• Collaborate with the product and admin-side (RuggedAdmin) teams to ship connected features
• Contribute to release processes and, ideally, CI/CD improvements over time
