Apply for this Position Position Overview
We're looking for a lead Android engineer to own an app and the team that builds it. You will set the architecture and release strategy, stay hands-on in Kotlin, and be accountable for delivery, stability, and the growth of your engineers.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead the Android workstream: architecture, delivery plan, and release strategy.
- Stay hands-on in Kotlin and Compose, especially on architecture and platform-level problems.
- Own the app's module structure and the conventions every Android engineer follows.
- Own release engineering end to end: build pipelines, staged rollouts, and release health.
- Set stability and performance targets - crash-free rate, startup, jank - and hold the team to them.
- Run design and code reviews and make the call when opinions split.
- Grow the engineers in the team through one-to-ones, feedback, and deliberate work assignment.
- Represent Android platform constraints in product, design, and API decisions.
Skills & Qualifications
- 7-10 years of Android development with deep Kotlin and Compose expertise.
- Experience leading an Android team while continuing to write code.
- A track record of designing or migrating a multi-module Android application.
- Deep knowledge of Gradle, build performance, and release automation.
- Experience owning Play Store releases, staged rollouts, and post-release monitoring.
- Experience giving direct feedback and helping engineers improve on the back of it.
- Ability to explain platform trade-offs to product and design without hand-waving.
Nice to Have
- Experience hiring and onboarding mobile engineers.
- Experience with Kotlin Multiplatform or Flutter as a shared-code strategy.
- Background in payments, identity, or media-heavy mobile applications.
- Experience working directly with client stakeholders.
What You'll Gain
- Competitive salary.
- Fully remote — work from wherever you're most productive.
- Annual learning budget for books, courses, and conferences.
- Top-tier hardware and software tooling.
- Private health insurance and flexible time off.
