About this role
# About Somethings
Somethings is building the first social wellness platform for teens — a place where a teen can form a real relationship with a mentor who gets them, sticks with them, and helps them get better.
25 Million teens in the U.S. are struggling with their mental health. Every one of the thousands of teens who downloads Somethings is struggling. Our job is to make sure they don’t just show up — they stay, connect with real humans who care deeply about them, and get the support that they need to thrive.
We’re backed by General Catalyst and world-class healthcare + consumer investors, and we’re growing like crazy — in 2025 we grew 1100%, and are on track to 5x in 2026.
If you want to be a part of the generationally defining company in mental health, welcome home.
# Role Overview
We’re looking for a Full Stack React Native Engineer to join our small, high-ownership engineering team and help build the core product experiences that drive our mission forward.
The work is high agency, high craft, and high impact:
You will directly shape the product experiences that help teens stay, connect, and genuinely get better.
# What You’ll Do
You won’t just “build features.” You’ll take full ownership of core missions tied directly to our 2026 strategy:
### 1. Make teen × mentor experiences magical
- Ship mobile experiences that feel warm, fast, and deeply human
- Improve the “first week” journey — onboarding, matching, early engagement
- Build UI that feels as intuitive and addictive as top consumer social apps
### 2. Build tools that safely scale our mentor operation
- Create mentor-facing features that increase consistency, speed, and connection
- Build safety surfaces that proactively detect risk and reduce human error
- Improve mentor workflows so that they feel empowered, not burdened, by our tools
### 3. Own full-stack product development
- Build end-to-end features across React Native, backend services, and APIs
