Vetting process
Four filters. Every engineer.
"Vetted, not listed" isn't a slogan. Here's exactly what every candidate passes before you see them.
Portfolio & code review
Real production code, not tutorials. We look for shipped apps, architecture decisions, and PR history.
What we check
- GitHub activity
- App store links
- Code quality
- Documentation
Technical interview
Live coding plus architecture discussion. RN-specific problems — state management, navigation, performance.
What we check
- RN fundamentals
- TypeScript depth
- Native bridge experience
- Problem solving
Reference calls
Two past managers or tech leads, verified not just listed. We ask about retention, communication, and delivery.
What we check
- Verified refs
- Communication
- Ownership
- Team fit
Paid trial
The engineer proves themselves on your codebase before you commit. Two weeks, either side can walk away.
What we check
- Ships code
- Communicates clearly
- Fits your team
- Delivers

Bench strength
The shape of our RN bench.
Not every engineer is a generalist. The scores below are the average across our active React Native roster — you'll see the individual breakdown in each profile.
Why React Native
Built for teams that already know React.
React developers, mobile-ready
Coming from React? Your team learns React Native in days, not months.
New Architecture
Fabric and TurboModules — the modern RN stack, not the legacy one.
Expo & bare workflows
Expo for speed, bare for full control. We know when to use which.
OTA updates
Ship fixes without store reviews. Iterate faster, break less.
One team, two stores
One codebase means half the maintenance burden.
Native performance
60fps on mid-tier Android. Measured, not assumed.
Apps we've shipped
Live in both stores.
Mobile banking app
Biometric login, transfers, bills, and airtime — 40k+ downloads.
40k+ downloads
Field agent app
Offline-capable onboarding and KYC for low-connectivity areas.
Offline-first
Multi-vendor shopping
iOS + Android with MoMo checkout and push notifications.
Both stores
The stack
Tools our RN engineers use.
Seniority levels
Three levels to match your needs.
Every engineer we place — at every level — is vetted, referenced, and able to communicate clearly.
3–5 years
Mid-level
Comfortable owning features with light guidance. Strong React + RN fundamentals.
5–8 years
Senior
Owns features end-to-end, mentors juniors, drives architecture and performance.
8+ years
Lead / Principal
Leads teams, defines patterns, owns technical direction across platforms.
Pricing depends on role, seniority, and engagement length — request a quote.
Brief template
What to include in your request.
Faster briefs mean faster shortlists. If you can answer these five things, we can usually confirm we can fill the role within hours.
- The role and seniority level
- Tech stack (Expo or bare? RN version?)
- Time zone overlap required
- Start date and engagement length
- Budget range (optional but speeds things up)
Onboarding timeline
What happens after you hire.
You're not throwing a stranger into the deep end. Here's the first eight weeks.
Week 1
Access, standups, first PR merged
Week 2
Ownership of a real feature
Week 4
Trial conversion decision
Week 8
Performance check-in with us
Replacement guarantee
If it doesn't work out, we fix it.
What "doesn't work out" means
Either side can walk away during the 2-week paid trial. After that, if the fit isn't right within 30 days, we replace the engineer free of charge.
How the 30-day window works
Starts the day the engineer joins. No fee, no argument. We source a replacement while the original finishes out their notice.
What we do during a replacement
You keep the same brief. We expedite — usually a new shortlist within 5 business days. No re-vetting fee.
Historical replacement rate
We replace about 6% of placements. Most of those are within the first 90 days — usually communication-style mismatches, not skill gaps.
How it works
From request to engineer in four steps.
Tell us the role
Share your app, stack, and start date. We confirm we can fill it — usually within hours.
We send candidates
Within 5–10 business days, you receive 2–3 pre-vetted React Native engineers.
You interview
You run your own interviews. We don't push candidates you don't love.
Trial or hire
2-week paid trial. Convert to full engagement if it works. We replace — free — if not.
Why us
Skip the CV pile.
Get real engineers.
Anyone can post a job ad. We do the vetting, reference checks, and technical screening — so you only see candidates worth interviewing.
Vetted, not listed
Every engineer passes all four filters before you see them.
Available in days
Most roles placed within 5–10 business days.
Long-term placements
We optimise for retention — not just one placement.
Global-ready
4+ hours of overlap with US East Coast. Full overlap with Europe.
Client feedback
What our clients
actually say.
“The move to SikaNet CBS was a bigger shift than I expected — but the right one. Before, our Susu collectors were on paper and every BOG report took us days to assemble. Now collections appear in the office before a collector even finishes their route, and the reports are just there. The team understood our business from day one.”
David Awuni
Founder, Adwumapa Microfinance
“We were cautious about moving patient records online. The on-prem approach changed that — everything stays inside the health center, nothing goes to a foreign cloud. Our clinicians now retrieve a file in seconds instead of ten minutes, and every entry has an audit trail behind it.”
Medical Director
Sekyedumase Health Center
“The patient management system they developed has streamlined our ophthalmology department. Appointment scheduling, patient records, and referral tracking are now seamless — saving us hours of administrative work every day.”
Isaac Adu
Ophthalmologist, Ghana Health Service
