React Native Developer (Remote) - Galatea

Inkitt is the world's first reader-powered publisher. We are developing an algorithm for forecasting new bestsellers based on an analysis of reader behavior. 3 years have passed since the launch of the platform, and currently, it amounts to 1.6 million users and is growing rapidly.

Did you know that Twilight was rejected by 14 publishers? Stephen King's first book by 30 publishers, and Harry Potter by 12 publishers? Also, Harry Potter was only published because the 8-year-old daughter of the 13th publisher found the manuscript, read it, and fell in love with it?
