The role is fully remote with flexibility on time zones; Visa sponsorship is considered for outstanding applicants.

Looking for "winners" who are driven and have achieved success in past endeavors.

Company Overview:

Arcade is focused on building a highly performant mobile app for trading crypto, targeting high-volume traders.

The company is self-funded with plans to be highly profitable from launch, aiming to scale quickly.

The founding team has extensive experience in crypto, having previously scaled a decentralized exchange to significant market share and revenue.

Role Requirements:

Looking for an elite React Native engineer to architect and implement the app from the ground up.

Experience with trading-related products and high output in React Native is essential.

Candidate Requirements

Must have a minimum of six years of experience, ideally in a startup environment or early with prominent financial products.

Miscellaneous

Track record of very high output.

Baseline:

Seniority

6 - 15 years of experience mobile engineering

Work experience

Experience independently designing, building, and scaling a consumer mobile app to 1M+ users

Experience working in a scrappy startup environment or as a founder

Hard skills

Experience with mobile and web3 technologies (Expo, Privy, viem, Solana, Hyperliquid SDK, cross- chain routing, PostHog, Sentry)

Soft skills

Strong drive and winning attitude.

Nice-to-have

Hard skills

Experience with native iOS or Android development (Swift, Kotlin)

Miscellaneous

Ability to work in NA/EU time zones (Eastern Time Zone preferred).

Traits to avoid:

Only narrow- scope optimization experience at Robinhood or big tech.

About this role

We are looking for a Founding Mobile Engineer with 6+ years of experience to architect and build a high-performance crypto trading app from the ground up. You'll be the first and only front-end engineer, owning everything the user touches - from cold start to trade confirmation - at a self-funded, fast-moving team that scaled their last product to $5.4M revenue in year one with just two people.

What will you be doing?

  • Architect the entire React Native mobile app from zero, making all foundational technical decisions
  • Build a best-in-class trading experience (spot + perps) optimized for speed and low latency across all interactions
  • Ship the app from 0 to App Store on a rapid timeline, working closely with the founder and a dedicated UI/UX designer
  • Ensure the app scales to handle 25 50K+ daily active users and $100M+ daily volume with no performance degradation
  • Own production reliability end-to-end - fix critical bugs the hour they land and automate release pipelines

Tech stack

React Native, TypeScript, Expo, Reanimated, Skia, Swift, Kotlin, Privy, viem, Solana, Hyperliquid SDK, PostHog, Sentry.
