In this role, you'll:
Modernize a large-scale production React Native application
Design reliable offline-first mobile experiences
Build Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) integrations with connected devices
Improve application performance, synchronization, and reliability
Influence architecture and engineering standards
Mentor other developers and provide technical leadership
Work directly with customers to understand real-world workflows and build solutions that make a difference
What You'll Do
Design, develop, test, and maintain React Native application features
Build reliable mobile experiences that perform seamlessly online and offline
Design and improve local data storage and synchronization capabilities
Contribute to application architecture, scalability, and long-term technical direction
Collaborate with Product, UX, QA, and Engineering to deliver high-quality solutions
Participate in code reviews and mentor junior developers
Continuously improve engineering practices, code quality, and team effectiveness
Occasionally visit customer farms to better understand user workflows and identify opportunities for innovation
What We're Looking For
Qualifications
6+ years of professional mobile application development experience, including strong expertise with React Native
Experience designing and building scalable, maintainable mobile applications using sound software architecture and engineering best practices
Experience developing applications that support intermittent or offline connectivity, including local databases and mobile synchronization strategies
Experience integrating Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) or similar hardware/device communication into mobile applications
Native Android or iOS development experience is a plus
Experience working in Agile software development environments using Jira, Gitflow, and modern CI/CD practices
Demonstrated ability to mentor developers, lead technical initiatives, and collaborate effectively across cross-functional teams
Interest in learning about agriculture and leveraging technology to improve farm operations
Willingness to travel to customer locations within the U.S. up to 15% as needed
Why VAS?
At VAS, you'll join a collaborative engineering team with the agility of a small software company and the stability and global reach of URUS. We believe great software comes from curious people who enjoy solving difficult problems, learning from customers, and continuously improving how they build.
Your work won't disappear into the background. You'll build technology used every day by customers around the world while solving meaningful technical challenges with modern mobile engineering practices.
