About the Role

We’re looking for a highly skilled Software Engineer (Django + React Native) to join our growing Engineering team. In this role, you’ll build and maintain both backend services and web/mobile application features that power Wingz’s core platform.

You’ll collaborate closely with Product, Operations, and fellow engineers to deliver scalable, reliable software that supports real-time operations and mission-critical healthcare transportation workflows as Wingz scales nationally.

This role is 100% remote within the United States.

What You’ll Do

  • Backend Development: Design, build, and maintain scalable APIs using Django and Django REST Framework.
  • Mobile Development: Develop and enhance mobile application features using React Native for iOS and Android.
  • Write clean, efficient, and reusable code following best practices.
  • Ensure performance, quality, and responsiveness across backend and mobile layers.
  • Collaborate with Product, Design, and Operations to ship features end-to-end.
  • Participate in code reviews and contribute to engineering standards and technical direction.
  • Database Management: Design and optimize database schemas; write efficient queries and manage migrations.
  • Write unit tests, debug issues, and maintain system reliability.
  • Maintain clear technical documentation for the codebase and systems you own.

What You’ll Need

  • At least 3 years of professional software engineering experience.
  • Strong experience with Django and Django REST Framework.
  • Hands-on experience building production mobile apps with React Native.
  • Proficiency in Python and modern JavaScript.
  • Experience designing and working with RESTful APIs and relational databases (e.g., PostgreSQL).
  • Familiarity with Git-based version control and collaborative development workflows.
  • Strong problem-solving skills and attention to detail.
  • Ability to work independently and communicate clearly in a fully remote environment.

Bonus Points

  • Experience with AWS or other cloud infrastructure.
  • Familiarity with Docker or containerized deployments.
  • Experience working on logistics, marketplace, or healthcare-related platforms.
  • Prior startup or early-stage company experience.

Why Wingz?

  • Mission-driven work that makes a tangible difference in people’s lives.
  • 100% remote work culture
  • A small, agile team where your impact is felt every day.
  • Competitive compensation and benefits.
