At Picnic, we’re revolutionizing the way people buy groceries with our affordable and sustainable app-only service. We do almost everything in-house, developing cutting-edge technologies and processes to ensure we continue to grow rapidly without missing a beat. If you’re a passionate React Native engineer, we’re offering you the opportunity to join the diverse team at our Amsterdam HQ and make a real difference in our scaleup environment.
In a nutshell
At Picnic, we use Native and React Native alongside each other to provide an innovative service to our customers. Why use React Native? To put it simply, using cross-platform technologies enables us to deliver more value to our customers, so it’s a no-brainer for us. What we like about React Native is that it’s an opt-out technology: it provides a useful escape hatch to Native. However, we only use React Native where it makes sense—the user experience is our top priority. And don’t worry, we love type-safety so all our React Native code is written in TypeScript.
