React Native · Expo
Hire React Native developers.
TypeScript-first engineers who can drop to Swift or Kotlin when the bridge demands it — which is the part most React Native teams cannot do.
Day-to-day
01Capability
What our React Native engineers do.
The cross-platform work, plus the native work it inevitably turns into.
- Ship to both stores from one codebase
- Expo and EAS pipelines, over-the-air updates for what does not need review, and submissions to App Store and Play.
- Write the native modules
- Swift and Kotlin bridges for camera, Bluetooth, background work and SDKs with no usable JavaScript surface. This is where most React Native projects stall.
- Untangle version debt
- React Native upgrades, New Architecture migration and the dependency graph that has not been touched in eighteen months.
- Fix the performance complaints
- List virtualisation, bridge traffic, Reanimated worklets and the startup time that makes an app feel like a website.
02Engagement
How to actually engage us.
Three ways to get React Native engineers on your product, priced in the open.
- Retainer — from $4k a month
- Reserved senior capacity on a rolling basis. Closest thing to an embedded hire, without the recruitment cycle or the notice period.
- Scoped project — $15k to $100k+
- A defined deliverable with a written scope and a fixed range: an MVP sprint at $15k–$40k, or a full build at $40k–$100k+.
- Assessment first
- For existing codebases, a scoped read-and-report before anyone commits to a monthly number. Nobody can quote a fix before reading the code.
03Terms
What you get either way.
The four things that do not change with the engagement model.
- Senior hands only
- The people who scope your project are the people who build it. No handoff to a junior bench after the pitch.
- Honest scopes
- A number we can stand behind beats a number that wins the pitch. Change requests get repriced in the open.
- You own everything
- Source, pipelines, store accounts and architecture notes. No lock-in and no hostage keys, whenever you leave.
- One business day
- Every brief gets a reply from an engineer within one business day, including the ones we turn down.
04FAQ
Before you brief us.
What does it cost to hire React Native developers?
From $4k a month for reserved capacity on a rolling retainer, or $15k–$40k for a scoped MVP sprint and $40k–$100k+ for a full cross-platform build.
Can your React Native engineers write native code?
Yes, and it is the reason to engage us rather than a JavaScript-only team. Swift, SwiftUI and Kotlin are first-language skills here, so a required native module is a normal ticket rather than a blocked sprint.
Should we use React Native at all?
When the interface is not your differentiator and you need both stores on one budget, yes. When the product lives on gestures, animation, background sensors, widgets or on-device ML, native is cheaper in the end. We put the reasoning in writing either way.
Can you take over an existing React Native codebase?
Yes. We start with a scoped assessment — get it building, read it, and report what is salvageable — before committing to a monthly scope.

Same people, described by the project rather than the role.
React Native development
One codebase, two platforms, no uncanny valley. Native modules where it counts, shared product surface everywhere else.
Android app development
Modern Android with Jetpack Compose, Material 3 and an architecture that survives its second year and its fourth OS version.
MVP development
One platform, one sharp idea, in front of real users. Scoped hard, built properly, and instrumented well enough to learn something.
