# Android Engineer, ChatGPT Mobile Infrastructure
**Company:** [OpenAI](https://hotfix.jobs/companies/openai)
**Location:** San Francisco, CA, New York, NY, Seattle, WA
**Salary:** $185K-$385K
**Skills:** Kotlin, Android, Jetpack, CI/CD, Performance Optimization, Profiling, Automated Testing, State Management, Observability, Navigation
**Posted:** 2026-03-01
> Staff+ Android engineers build core Kotlin frameworks, enhance performance and reliability, and develop tooling for ChatGPT mobile apps. Requires strong expertise in Android development, platform architecture, and collaboration.
## Job Description
## In this role, you may:
- Build and evolve core Kotlin frameworks used across multiple apps and platforms (e.g., caching, state management, observability, navigation, component systems).
- Enhance app performance (startup, responsiveness, memory, battery life) through profiling, monitoring, regression prevention, or architectural improvements.
- Increase reliability by reducing crashes, improving error handling, and driving release process improvements.
- Collaborate closely with product engineering teams to identify pain points and emerging infrastructure needs.
- Develop internal tooling and automation (CI, testing, guardrails, Codex agent skills, and systems) to accelerate engineering velocity.
- Turn real-world constraints into simple abstractions: intuitive APIs, enforceable contracts, safe defaults.

## You might thrive in this role if you:
- Bring strong expertise in Android development (**Kotlin**, modern architecture patterns, **Jetpack**).
- Gravitate toward platform challenges: frameworks, architecture, performance, or creating tools that empower other engineers.
- Take ownership by identifying key risks/opportunities, driving projects to completion, and adapting quickly.
- Care about measurement: instrument thoroughly, define metrics, run experiments, and iterate based on data.
- Communicate and collaborate effectively—aligning on interfaces, navigating tradeoffs, and driving cross-team execution.
- Think in systems, fight entropy, and enjoy ambiguous challenges.
