About the Role
Contract / Freelance • Remote • Immediate Start
We are building a native mobile application and need a talented, passionate developer who lives and breathes vibe coding. You will receive a working base version of our app built on Replit, take ownership of third-party service integrations, and drive the full deployment pipeline from Replit through Xcode to the Apple App Store.
This is NOT a traditional software engineering role. We want someone who moves fast, embraces AI-assisted development, and has proven hands-on experience getting real apps shipped to the app stores.
What You'll Do
- Receive our base Replit app and take full ownership of the codebase
- Integrate third-party APIs and services (payments, auth, notifications, analytics, etc.)
- Configure native build pipelines - Xcode for iOS, Android Studio if applicable
- Handle code signing, provisioning profiles, entitlements, and App Store Connect submissions
- Troubleshoot build, runtime, and Apple review rejection issues
- Use AI tools (Cursor, Replit AI, Claude, ChatGPT, etc.) aggressively to ship faster
- Document your deployment process so our team can maintain the app going forward
You Are
- A true vibe coder - you ship fast, iterate constantly, and prompt your way through problems
- Experienced deploying React Native, Flutter, Capacitor, or similar apps to native iOS/Android
- Comfortable working in Replit and exporting to native environments
- Fluent in Xcode - provisioning, certificates, TestFlight, and App Store submissions are second nature
- A self-starter who works independently, communicates clearly, and meets deadlines
Required Skills
- 2+ successful App Store submissions from end to end
- Xcode: signing certificates, provisioning profiles, build settings, App Store Connect
- Replit - comfortable working in and exporting from Replit projects
- React Native, Expo, Flutter, or Capacitor - at least one deeply
- REST API integration, OAuth flows, webhook handling
- Daily use of AI coding assistants (Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Claude, etc.)
- Portfolio or GitHub showing real shipped apps - links required
Third-Party Integrations We May Need
- Stripe or RevenueCat (payments/subscriptions)
- Firebase (Auth, Firestore, Push Notifications)
- Analytics (Amplitude, Mixpanel, or Segment)
- Messaging (Twilio, SendGrid, or similar)
Nice to Have
- Google Play Store deployment experience
- CI/CD with GitHub Actions, Bitrise, or EAS Build
- Startup or fast-moving product environment experience
How to Apply
Send us a message with:
- Links to 2+ live apps you personally deployed to the App Store
- A brief description of your vibe coding workflow and AI tools you use daily
- Your availability and rough timeline estimate
- Your hourly rate or project-based quote
