Our hybrid work model (3 days in the office) gives us the face-to-face time to have creative conversations, meaningful meetings, make quick decisions and build relationships. At the same time, it offers flexibility you need to focus and do your best work.

As part of our mobile development team, you will work in small, cross-functional teams of engineers, UX designers, and product owners located in Europe/US/India. You will focus on discovering new customer solution needs by testing the demand, usability, value, and feasibility of new ideas, as well as delivering a robust and scalable implementation of the best ideas that our customers can depend on.

In your role, you will be able to learn how to build at scale with a critical mission while also able to innovate like a startup. You'll tackle some of the most challenging problems, research and suggest the implementation of new technologies, and work with a cross-functional team in a collaborative environment.

Objectives:

  • Collaborate in Agile teams to design, build, and deliver high-quality Android apps using Java/Kotlin

  • Contribute to all phases of development—from planning and coding to testing, peer reviews, and demos

  • Solve complex problems, improve app architecture, and ensure code quality through static analysis, test coverage, and automation

  • Continuously learn, share knowledge, and drive improvements across the team and product

Competencies:

This role requires a self-starter who enjoys working in a collaborative environment that emphasizes working in small cross-functional teams with UX and engineering teammates as one unit on a mission to make the world a better place.

  • A degree in Computer Science (BS/MS) or equivalent, and relevant experience in mobile development (Android)

  • Strong skills in software engineering, architecture, algorithms, and debugging

  • Solid experience with Android frameworks, OS-level development, and unit testing

  • Proven track record with Agile methodologies and CI tools like Jenkins

  • A proactive, collaborative mindset and the ability to thrive in a fast-paced, cross-functional environment

  • Published Android apps and a passion for building secure, user-centric products

  • Bonus: Automation skills and a generalist approach with flexibility to tackle new challenges
