What you'll do...
As a Senior Software Engineer, you’ll be a hands-on technical leader driving the development of our native Android experience built in Kotlin. You’ll play a central role in our transition from a micro-app architecture to native mobile development — shaping the technical direction and raising the bar for quality across the team. You will drive the development of native mobile applications for Android.

- Collaborate closely with product owners, UX designers, and backend engineers in a trio model to translate business requirements into well-scoped technical solutions
- Own code quality through thorough code reviews, championing consistent patterns, testability, and adherence to Android platform best practices
- Write and maintain automated tests using JUnit, Espresso, MockK, and Robolectric to ensure reliability across releases
- Integrate and manage third-party SDKs and platform services including LaunchDarkly for feature flagging, Airship for push notifications, and Firebase for distribution
- Leverage analytics and monitoring tools like Datadog and Adobe Analytics to inform decisions, track app health, and support A/B testing
- Contribute to CI/CD pipeline improvements using tools like Fastlane, GitHub Actions, and Azure DevOps to streamline builds and releases
- Utilize AI-powered development tools such as GitHub Copilot to accelerate development and explore opportunities to integrate AI capabilities into the product
- Mentor other engineers on native Android development patterns, modern Kotlin idioms, and mobile best practices — helping elevate the technical skills of the broader team
