Experienced React Native Developer for Android App Maintenance (Hourly)

Published on the January 19, 2026 in IT & Programming

About this project

Open

We are seeking an experienced React Native developer for the ongoing maintenance of a live Android application. The app is currently live and feature-complete, and the scope of this project is strictly maintenance, with no new feature development.

Tech Stack:
- React Native (hybrid app)
- Node.js (TypeScript)
- PostgreSQL
- REST APIs
- Sentry for crash & error monitoring
- Android is currently the only active platform

Main Responsibilities (Maintenance Only):
- Bug fixes & crash fixes
- Monitoring and resolving production issues
- Play Store updates & compliance
- Stability & performance-related issues
- Small technical adjustments only when required to keep the app stable

Important Considerations:
- No new features will be developed.
- No rebuilds, redesigns, or refactoring/architectural changes without prior approval.

The primary focus is purely on keeping the existing app stable and running smoothly. Backend maintenance is included only insofar as required for stability; no new backend features or structural changes are anticipated.

Availability and Setup:
- Expected workload: 10–15 hours per month.
- This will be an hourly contract with a clear monthly hours cap.
- Our goal is a long-term, calm maintenance collaboration.
- The project will start after a handover from the current development team.

Ideal Candidate Profile:
- Strong experience with React Native.
- Proven experience maintaining live production applications.
- Comfortable working with existing codebases.
- Reliable communication and reasonable response times.
- Focused on stability rather than rewriting or optimizing code.

Experience with social or chat-based applications is a plus, but not a mandatory requirement.
