Metamindz is a UK-based IT software company providing fractional CTO services and building high-tier digital products. 

We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join a very early-stage, self-funded startup that is building a mobile-first product aimed at transforming how pet-care businesses(dog walking, pet sitting, training, etc.) operate day-to-day.

The product will help pet-care companies manage schedules, assign freelancers (dog walkers, sitters, trainers), handle invoices and receipts, and run their operations more efficiently - all from a single mobile app.

This position is for a strong, product-minded engineer that would be excited about building the first production version of the app.

Responsibilities:

• Build and ship the first version of a React Native mobile application from existing designs
• Implement core product features including scheduling, assignments, and basic operational workflows
• Develop and maintain a backend using NodeJS and TypeScript
• Work with Supabase or Firebase for authentication and real-time features
• Design and work with SQL databases, ensuring clean schemas and reliable data flows
• Handle app submissions and updates for App Store and Google Play
• Collaborate closely with founders and product stakeholders
• Use AI tools pragmatically to increase development speed and quality, while reviewing and owning the output
• Write clean, maintainable, and production-ready code with a strong sense of responsibility

Requirements:

• 4+ years of commercial experience with React Native
• Proven experience publishing apps to the App Store and Play Store
• 3+ years of commercial experience with NodeJS and TypeScript
• Hands-on experience with Supabase and/or Firebase
• Strong understanding of SQL databases and experience using ORMs
• Solid engineering fundamentals and ability to work independently
• Professional proficiency in English (written and spoken)
• Strong soft skills, clear communication, and ownership mindset
• Comfortable using AI as a productivity multiplier
   

Nice to Have:

• Experience working with very early-stage or lean startups
• Product-oriented mindset and ability to make pragmatic technical decisions
• Previous experience building MVPs or v1 products from scratch

What We Offer:

• Short-term contract engagement (3–4 months) with clear scope and ownership
• Fully remote work and flexible schedule
• Direct impact on a real product from day one
• Minimal process, no bureaucracy, no micromanagement
• Opportunity to shape the technical foundation of a growing product
• Competitive contract compensation, aligned with seniority and impact
