How to integrate Mobile App with Salesforce

We have a mobile app built using React Native and we have an external Identity Provider.

Here is our login flow:
Mobile App connects with Salesforce (using salesforce SDK) through OAuth and Salesforce performs SAML authentication with our external Identity Provider. So, for every user account in Identity Provider we have a Salesforce User record. And mobile tracks the Salesforce session.

Our goal is to avoid using Salesforce User record and have Mobile App perform SSO OAuth with external Identity Provider.
We don't know how to integrate from Mobile App to Salesforce for retrieving data. We want to use a single user account to connect with Salesforce, but we do NOT want to store the credentials of this user in Mobile App.

Any thoughts?
