Job Description

About the Role

We're looking for a Senior Android Software Engineer to join a small, product-focused team building a consumer fintech mobile app. You'll have a meaningful impact on the product's direction and user experience, working closely with engineering, product, and business stakeholders to deliver high-quality features at scale.

What You'll Do

  • Design, implement, and maintain a consumer-facing Android application used in production.

  • Contribute to platform-level architecture and help scale core infrastructure.

  • Solve problems pragmatically, balancing speed and quality in a fast-moving environment.

  • Contribute to product design and direction decisions alongside cross-functional teams.

  • Collaborate effectively with product, engineering, and business stakeholders.

  • Mentor and provide technical guidance to junior engineers on the Android team.

What We're Looking For

  • 2+ years of professional experience building and shipping production Android apps.

  • Strong Kotlin expertise with demonstrated use of Jetpack Compose and modern architecture patterns (MVVM or Clean Architecture).

  • Experience building consumer-facing mobile applications (not solely B2B).

  • Proficiency with Android testing strategies — unit, instrumentation, and UI tests.

  • Experience integrating Firebase services including Authentication, Firestore/Realtime Database, and Cloud Messaging.

  • Familiarity with backend data formats and APIs used in mobile apps: protobufs, REST, and gRPC.

  • Experience maintaining CI/CD pipelines for mobile app development.

  • Demonstrated mentorship or technical leadership experience guiding junior engineers.

  • Strong communication and cross-functional collaboration skills.

  • Background in fintech, personal finance, or consumer mobile apps is a plus.

Compensation & Benefits

  • Salary: $160,000 – $200,000 USD annually

  • Visa sponsorship: Available
