The Android Engineer will design build and evolve high-quality Android experiences using Kotlin and modern Android frameworks. This person will partner closely with product design backend quality and iOS peers and help the team ship reliable customer value. The ideal candidate has deep Android expertise and enough hands-on iOS experience to reason about platform tradeoffs review shared mobile patterns and occasionally contribute targeted Swift or SwiftUI changes when useful.

• Own the design and implementation of complex Android features from discovery through monitoring after release.
• Set and evolve technical direction for Kotlin Jetpack Compose app architecture modularization networking persistence and dependency management.
• Write clear technical designs; surface tradeoffs risks dependencies and migration plans before implementation.
• Build accessible responsive interfaces in close partnership with product design and research.
• Improve automated testing across unit integration UI and end-to-end layers; make quality an everyday engineering practice.
• Strengthen observability performance crash health security privacy and release confidence for the Android app.
• Partner with backend and platform teams on API contracts offline behavior authentication experimentation and analytics.
• Collaborate with iOS engineers on shared product behavior and mobile standards while respecting platform-native conventions.
• Review code thoughtfully mentor engineers and raise the quality of technical decisions without becoming a delivery bottleneck.
• Participate in planning estimation incident response and continuous improvement of the mobile delivery process.

• 5 years with BS/BA; 9 years with a high school diploma
• Advanced Kotlin skills and strong knowledge of Android SDK fundamentals Jetpack libraries coroutines and reactive state management.

iOS Experience Expected

This remains an Android-first role. Candidates do not need to be senior iOS specialists but they should have enough practical experience to collaborate across both mobile platforms. Strong evidence includes:

• Hands-on experience reading and making scoped changes in Swift SwiftUI and/or UIKit.
• Familiarity with Xcode iOS app lifecycle navigation concurrency testing code signing and App Store release workflows.
• Ability to compare Android and iOS implementation tradeoffs without forcing identical architecture or user-interface patterns.
• Experience contributing to shared mobile conventions API contracts design systems analytics taxonomies or cross-platform feature parity.

• 6 years of professional software engineering experience including substantial ownership of production Android applications; equivalent depth of experience is welcome.
• Experience in a consumer subscription healthcare fintech marketplace or other reliability-sensitive mobile product.
• Knowledge of Kotlin Multiplatform or another selective code-sharing approach with pragmatic judgment about where sharing helps.
• Experience with mobile CI/CD build performance feature flags experimentation and automated release tooling.
• Familiarity with mobile security privacy accessibility standards and threat modeling.
• Experience leading migrations such as Views to Compose monolith to modules or legacy asynchronous code to coroutines.
