- Contribute to our theme-based design system with 100+ shared components
- Build and maintain WebSocket subscriptions for live odds, match updates, and user notifications
- Implement state synchronization between real-time streams and local stores
- Handle deep linking from push notifications, attribution links, and web referrals
- Integrate payment flows: in-app purchases, bank transfers, card entry with verification
- Debug and fix platform-specific issues across iOS, Android, and web
- Optimize performance: animation frame rates, render efficiency, memory management
- Write worklet functions for animation-thread execution
- Maintain E2E automation tests and contribute to CI/CD pipelines
