About the role

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.
