Requirements
What you’ll need- 5+ years of software engineering experience, including time leading a team or owning a major surface while staying hands-on
- Rock solid Kotlin, Kotlin Coroutines, Kotlin Flow, Dagger 2, MVVM, Clean Architecture, Background Services, Music Player Service, Android animations, Jetpack Navigation, and JUnit tests
- Experience shipping and maintaining background audio or other long-running background work
- Understanding of the importance of tests and how to approach writing them, including what can't be covered by them
- Something you introduced to a team that stuck after you stopped pushing it, and an honest account of what it cost to get there
- Some comfort with the unpopular half of the job: asking people to change how they work, and living with the friction that follows
- A view on which changes need heavy review and which don't, argued from what the system does
- A track record of building things the rest of your team actually used, not only things that made you faster
- The ability to describe how your team works with AI agents, not only how you do personally
- Product design intuition, user empathy, and the drive to push Android UI/UX further than the spec asks for
- Self-drive to improve the app and codebase beyond what's outlined in the spec

- Several technical interviews plus an assessment on a real codebase
- Portfolio and LinkedIn links
