About LG NOVA

LG NOVA is the North American Innovation Center for LG Electronics, based in Santa Clara, CA. Our mission is to build AI-first ventures that solve real-world problems - collaborating with entrepreneurs, engineers, and domain experts to create new businesses from the ground up.

The Role

We're looking for a contract React Native Developer to own the front-end of a new AI-powered B2B SaaS product currently in active development. This is a 3-month full-time contract with potential for extension based on project success.

You'll be embedded in a small founding team, working closely with back-end engineers and an AI/ML lead. This isn't a feature-factory role - you'll have real influence over the UX, component architecture, and mobile experience from the ground up.

We expect you to use AI tools aggressively in your own workflow - Cursor, Claude, whatever ships faster. That said, you own every line that goes to production: code should be clean, readable, and something your teammates can maintain without you."

What You'll Do



  • Build and own the React Native (Expo) front-end across iOS and Android from early-stage through pilot launch
  • Implement AI-driven conversational UI flows, onboarding experiences, and data-rich dashboards
  • Integrate with a Node.js/Supabase back-end via REST and real-time subscriptions
  • Collaborate with design to translate Figma prototypes into polished, performant mobile screens
  • Instrument product analytics and contribute to a culture of fast, data-informed iteration
  • Participate in lightweight code review and maintain clean, well-structured component libraries


Must-Haves



  • Deep, hands-on experience with React Native and Expo - you've shipped Expo-managed workflow apps to the App Store and Google Play
  • Strong command of TypeScript, React hooks, and state management (Zustand, Jotai, or similar)
  • You've built production UIs that consume LLM APIs - you understand streaming, token latency, error handling, and how to design interactions that don't fall apart when the AI is slow or wrong
  • Comfort working across the stack - you can read Supabase queries, understand API contracts, and debug end-to-end without hand-holding
  • AI-accelerated workflow - you actively use tools like Cursor or GitHub Copilot and can demonstrate meaningfully faster output because of it
  • A portfolio of real shipped products, not just side projects


Nice-to-Haves



  • Experience with PostHog for product analytics and feature flags
  • Founder or early-stage startup experience - you know what it means to make decisions with incomplete information and move fast
  • Familiarity with Supabase real-time subscriptions or Row-Level Security (RLS)
  • Eye for UX detail - you've pushed back on designs because you knew the implementation would hurt the user


Tech Stack

React Native * Expo * TypeScript * Node.js * Supabase (Postgres + Auth) * OpenAI/Anthropic APIs * PostHog * Figma * Cursor

Compensation & Terms



  • Hourly pay rate of around $75-95/hr, depending on demonstrated experience and portfolio quality
  • Expectation is for a 3-month contract duration (around 35 hrs/week); extension based on project success
  • Remote-friendly; preference for SF Bay Area candidates who can meet in person periodically


Why Join



  • Work on a product that's live with real users by the end of your contract
  • Tight team, fast decisions, minimal bureaucracy
  • Backed by LG NOVA's innovation engine with enterprise distribution potential
