Description

About Dorsia Dorsia is redefining how people access the world’s most in-demand restaurants, events, and experiences, fusing technology with luxury hospitality to give members access to the impossible, and giving operators the tools to match. We’re a fast-growing startup backed by $50M+ from Index Ventures and partners including Major Food Group, Groot Hospitality, and Gracious Hospitality. We’re building the team for our next phase of growth. About the Role Dorsia is seeking a Platform Engineer, Mobile to own the React Native foundation that powers our member app. Extending well beyond deployment infrastructure, the scope encompasses mobile architecture, framework adoption, app performance, and a white label strategy built to scale without rework. As we expand beyond dining into events and experiences, we need someone who can hold both dimensions at once: the operational rigor to eliminate bottlenecks and the architectural vision to raise the ceiling as the product grows. Qualified individuals will build the pipeline, drive framework migrations, ship under pressure, and understand the product deeply enough to make the platform serve it rather than constrain it. What You’ll Do Mobile Platform Infrastructure & Deployment Own and evolve Dorsia’s React Native / Expo infrastructure end-to-end, from local dev environment to App Store release, leveraging EAS Build, Expo Updates, and the New Architecture where they earn their complexity. Eliminate deployment bottlenecks: architect and maintain CI/CD pipelines (EAS Build, GitHub Actions) that let engineers ship faster with fewer manual steps. Implement and manage OTA update strategies via Expo Updates across a high-velocity release cadence (10+ OTA updates/week), knowing when to push OTA vs. when a full binary release is required. Own the module architecture decisions that keep a growing codebase navigable as new product surfaces (events, experiences, corporate booking) are added. App Store & Distribution Own the full release pipeline for both platforms: App Store Connect (provisioning, TestFlight, review submissions) and Google Play Console (tracks, signing, internal testing). Navigate review processes proactively on both stores, anticipating rejection vectors, managing escalations, and knowing when and how to push back effectively. Own the native integration surface (Braze, Segment, Datadog, Branch, Stripe, and Plaid, etc) keeping integrations clean, well-bounded, and maintainable as the product grows. Stay ahead of annual OS and SDK changes on both iOS and Android, covering minimum deployment targets, deprecated APIs, and new policy requirements, ensuring the app is prepared at release time. Performance, Reliability & Developer Experience Own mobile app performance and observability: JS bundle size, startup time, frame rate, crash reporting (Datadog), and release health dashboards, with baselines to catch regressions before they reach production. Build and maintain internal developer tooling that makes the mobile engineering team faster: local build scripts, environment switching, debugging utilities. Define and enforce code quality standards for the React Native codebase, including TypeScript strictness, component patterns, native module boundaries. The Winning Recipe 5+ years of mobile or modern web engineering experience, with at least 3 years in React Native on a production consumer app. Hands-on Expo expertise: EAS Build, EAS Submit, Expo Updates, SDK upgrades, and the tradeoffs between managed and bare workflow. Proven experience owning a mobile CI/CD pipeline; you’ve built it, broken it, and made it better. Deep familiarity with both the Apple and Google developer ecosystems: App Store Connect, provisioning, entitlements, Google Play Console, release tracks, and review processes on both. You’ve shipped multiple apps to both stores and know how they actually work. Strong TypeScript across the stack with a high bar for type safety and code quality in a shared codebase. Experience with React Native’s New Architecture (JSI, Fabric, TurboModules) and a clear opinion on when to adopt it. Comfortable writing native modules in Swift or Kotlin when JavaScript can’t get the job done. Experience at a company expanding a mobile product beyond its original scope, including adding new surfaces without letting the platform become a bottleneck. Product-minded: you care about what you’re building, not just how it’s built. You’ve shipped features that members actually use. Hospitality-curious and genuinely interested in food, restaurants, and the luxury member experience Dorsia delivers. Strong plus: experience with GraphQL (Apollo or similar), Dorsia’s stack (PHP, TypeScript), or prior work in luxury/lifestyle consumer apps.

We determine our pay by considering skills and experience related to the role, location, and ensuring internal equity relative to other Dorsia employees. Typical base salary ranges are: Junior level: $100,000–$160,000 Mid level: $150,000–$200,000 Senior level: $190,000–$250,000 Compensation: New York Pay Range $100,000—$250,000 USD Workplace Philosophy at Dorsia At Dorsia, we believe that culture eats strategy. The best ideas in the world mean nothing without the right people around the table and the right chemistry between them. We are, unapologetically, a people-first organization. In-Person Matters We’re creating once-in-a-lifetime experiences for the most discerning audience in the world. That doesn’t happen over Zoom. It happens through collisions: a spark across a desk, a kitchen-side conversation that unlocks a partnership, the energy of ideas felt, not typed. That’s why in-office culture is non-negotiable at Dorsia. Who We Hire We don’t subscribe to check-the-box hiring. We hire for merit and mindset, which naturally creates a team with varied backgrounds. What unites us isn’t demographics, it’s a shared vision: to build the social operating system for the cultural vanguard. Lifestyle Hours We’re not a 9-to-5 company. Our lifestyle mirrors our members. Early flights, after-work events, and late-night sprints when the work demands it. But we love what we do, and we definitely love a good party. High Performance Culture Working at Dorsia isn’t for everyone—and that’s the point. Our culture is designed for builders, not passengers. We move fast, set ambitious standards, and expect people to rise to them. If you have the talent and the drive, this will be a ride to remember. A Final Word We’re building something special. It will take long hours and relentless effort. It’s not for everyone. For those with the metabolism, you’ll create something that changes how culture is lived. And that’s the kind of work worth your life’s energy.
