Cannot find native module "ExpoHead"

Current Behavior

I am trying to integrate expo-router in to the expo project configured in nx. However I keep getting this error and i am unable to implement navigation. The steps I have followed are listed in https://docs.expo.dev/routing/installation/. This is the snapshot of the error I receive,

The error log in the terminal,

 ERROR  Error: Cannot find native module 'ExpoHead'
 ERROR  Invariant Violation: "main" has not been registered. This can happen if:
* Metro (the local dev server) is run from the wrong folder. Check if Metro is running, stop it and restart it in the current project.
* A module failed to load due to an error and `AppRegistry.registerComponent` wasn't called.

I tested the same steps defined in the expo docs on a simple expo app and it works as expected

Expected Behavior

Needs to be able to navigate from one screen to another without any errors or issues.
