TRUSTED BY COMPANIES ACROSS AFRICA, THE US, AND EUROPE

SKILLS & TECHNOLOGIES

Mobile App Developers available across every major stack

Every developer specifies the frameworks and tools they've
shipped to production — not just listed on a CV.

WHY GIGSON

Why hire mobile app developers
through Gigson

Not a marketplace. A curated, assessed talent pool — with a 48-hour
match guarantee.

Cross-platform expertise

React Native and Flutter developers who have shipped apps to the App Store and Play Store — not just side projects, but production apps with real user bases.

Native when needed

Swift and Kotlin developers available for native iOS and Android work — when performance-critical features require native APIs.

Strong mobile-specific experience

Push notifications, offline-first architecture, deep linking, biometric auth, in-app purchases — real production experience with mobile's unique constraints.

Africa's largest mobile ecosystem

African developers have built for mobile-first markets — users on low-memory devices, intermittent connectivity, and mobile money integrations. That experience is invaluable.

VETTING PROCESS

How every mobile app developer is assessed

Top 4% is not marketing. Here is exactly what
every developer goes through.

96%

of applicants do not pass — only the top 4% of mobile app developers make it into the Gigson network.

23,000+

vetted developers currently in the network — actively available for new roles across all specialisations.

Free replacement guarantee

Managed service clients receive a free replacement within 90 days if the developer underperforms or exits. No additional fee.

Application & profile review

Candidates submit a detailed profile — stack, project history, years of experience, and availability. Profiles with insufficient depth are filtered immediately.

Devcenter technical assessment

A real-world skills test built for the specific role — not algorithmic puzzles. Tests applied architecture decisions, debugging, and production-quality problem solving.

Profile enrichment

Passing developers complete salary expectations, remote work preferences, availability windows, and preferred stack. All visible to you in every search result.

Talent manager review (managed)

For Gigson Performance hires, a talent manager screens each shortlisted developer against your specific role before presenting them.

USE CASES

What companies hire
mobile app developers to build

Real projects, real outcomes.

Consumer Apps

iOS and Android apps with high UX standards — authentication, onboarding, payments, and push notification flows.

Fintech Mobile

Mobile banking, wallet apps, P2P payments, investment platforms, and mobile money integrations.

Healthtech Mobile

Patient-facing apps, appointment booking, health tracking, and EHR integrations.

Cross-Platform MVPs

Ship to iOS and Android simultaneously with React Native or Flutter — faster, leaner, one codebase.

"We needed a React Native developer who'd shipped real apps, not someone learning on our product. Our Gigson hire had four App Store apps in his portfolio and hit the ground running immediately. The Devcenter assessment genuinely filters for quality."
