Think ChatGPT for financial markets.We believe the era of scrolling through trading apps is ending. The future is a personal AI companion that knows your goals, watches the markets while you sleep, and helps you build wealth across prediction markets, crypto, stocks, and everything in between.We're a small, scrappy team, backed by leading U.S. investors, and looking to build a base in São Paulo. We ship fast, have a vision for the future, and obsess over craft. If you've ever wished financial tools felt more like the best consumer apps on your phone and less like a Bloomberg Terminal, this is your opportunity to build it.Role DescriptionThis is a full-time on-site role for a Lead React Native Engineer based in São Paulo, Brazil. You'll be the founding mobile engineer at Glitch, the person who owns the iOS and Android experience end to end. This isn't a \"ticket-taker\" role.We want someone product-oriented who brings strong ideas for features and improvements, not just someone implementing tickets. You'll be building new kinds of mobile interfaces for AI products: dynamic surfaces, conversational workflows, and composable UI systems that can adapt to user context in real time.If you are an active trader of prediction markets, crypto, or stocks, that’s a huge plus.Day to day, you'll be:Owning the architecture and development of our React Native app end to end, and defining the foundation we build on as the product evolves.Designing fluid, animated interactions that make the AI feel like a living presence, not a text boxImplementing real-time data feeds, push notifications, and background processing for market alertsCollaborating directly with the founder on product direction. Your opinions on UX matter here, not just your codeBuilding composable UI primitives (cards, charts, widgets) that our AI agent can dynamically assemble into personalized interfacesUsing AI coding tools (e.g., Claude Code, Codex, Cursor) to move at the pace of a full engineering team, even when you’re building soloShipping to TestFlight and the App Store, managing releases, and iterating fast based on user feedbackIntegrating with crypto wallets, onchain transactions, and Web3 infrastructureQualifications3+ years of production React Native experience (or React + strong mobile interest; convince us)You've shipped at least one app that real humans use and love. Show usDeep comfort with TypeScript, modern React patterns (hooks, context, concurrent features), and state managementExperience with animations and gesture handling (Reanimated, Gesture Handler). You care about the 60fps detailsStrong CS fundamentals: algorithms, data structures, system design. You can think, not just implementExperience with real-time data (WebSockets, SSE, polling) and push notificationsComfort with backend integration: REST APIs, GraphQL, authentication flowsProficient with AI coding tools to increase productivity (e.g., Claude Code, Codex, Cursor)Bonus: crypto/Web3 experience (wallets, transactions, onchain data)Bonus: experience building chat interfaces, AI-powered UIs, or streaming LLM responsesBonus: an eye for design. You notice when padding is off by 4px and it bothers youBonus: familiarity with native modules and bridging when React Native isn't enoughWho You AreScrappy. You'd rather ship something imperfect today than architect the perfect system for a month. You can go from zero to prototype in a weekendOpinionated about craft. You have taste. You've used an app and thought \"this animation is wrong\" and you could explain why. You care about the details that make software feel goodExcited about the frontier. AI-native interfaces, prediction markets, crypto — this isn't a job where you maintain a CRUD app. The product we're building barely has precedent.Low-ego, high-output. Small team. Everyone does everything. You'll pair with the founder, debate product decisions, and push code in the same afternoonBuilder energy. You make things on the side. You have a GitHub with projects. You get excited about new libraries and try them at 2am. You can't help itWhy GlitchCompensation.
