Job Description
What We're Building**
Purpose** is creating the world's first AI-powered personal growth coach—helping people move from "I'm doing fine" to "I know who I am, what I care about, and how to live with clarity." We're building the visual language of personal transformation.
**The foundation is proven:**
- Co-founded by Mark Manson (20M+ readers, The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F***) and Raj Singh (100M+ users, last AI product acquired by Revinate)
- The Role: Mobile Development with Polish and Purpose**
You'll be a key part of our mobile team building the React Native app that guides people through their personal growth journey. Mobile app development:**
- Build and enhance our React Native app with smooth animations and micro-interactions
- Implement our AI avatar system with engaging, personality-driven animations
- Develop visual feedback systems that celebrate user progress and breakthroughs
**Build robust real-time systems with streaming AI responses: Optimize performance for long conversation threads: virtualization, memory profiling, 60fps consistency
- Ship core user experiences: onboarding flows, conversation threads, search/export, weekly insights, privacy controls
- Integrate seamlessly with backend: auth, billing, analytics, push notifications with offline sync
## **React Native expertise:**
- 4+ years shipping React Native apps with polished animations and smooth interactions
- Strong experience with React Native Reanimated for transitions, gestures, and micro-interactions
- Proven ability to maintain 60fps performance and optimize memory usage for mobile apps
- Portfolio showing attention to polish: smooth transitions, thoughtful loading states, delightful interactions
**Mobile development foundation:**
- WebSockets, Server-Sent Events, or GraphQL subscriptions for streaming data
- TypeScript fluency with clean architecture patterns that scale
- Testing mindset: Jest, React Native Testing Library, Detox experience
- App Store deployment, CI/CD pipelines, feature flags, rollout strategy
**Excitement about using animation to create delightful, engaging experiences that keep people motivated on their personal growth journey
- Interest in how visual feedback affects behavior change and habit formation
- Belief that thoughtful design can create a welcoming environment for personal reflection and self-discovery
**Bonus experience:**
- Advanced React Native animation libraries: Lottie for vector animations, complex gesture handling
- Backend familiarity: Node.js, serverless patterns, API design
- Experience with character animations or avatar systems
## **Creative impact:** Your mobile development work will be the first thing users see when they're exploring new insights, working toward goals, or celebrating progress. You're not just building features—you're creating the digital experience that supports personal transformation.
**You'll help shape a product that genuinely improves people's lives—not optimizing ad revenue or engagement metrics, but building technology that helps people understand themselves and grow as individuals.
**Meaningful work:** Every smooth interaction and thoughtful detail helps someone understand themselves better. This isn't just another productivity app.
**Salary:** **$80k – $160k • 0.5% – 1.0% equity**
We encourage applications from candidates of all backgrounds who share our mission of making personal growth accessible through thoughtful technology. Remote working/work at home options are available for this role.
