As an Android Engineer on our world-class team, you’ll be exposed to the entire product lifecycle, from idea generation, design, prototyping, planning, execution, and ultimately shipping the final product to market. We’re building a team that’s passionate about innovation, apprenticeship (learning by pairing), and building the best connected experiences. We’re looking for a smart, kind, and reliable Android Engineer who is eager to make a big impact and build amazing products that millions of users use everyday. If you’re ready to grab this amazing opportunity and help us build the future, we want to work with you!

  • MVP architecture in Android a plus
  • Knowledge of Android SDK performance tools and optimization techniques
  • Experience building consumer-facing products
  • A tenacious, entrepreneurial attitude with the drive to deliver high quality products on time
  • Strong interpersonal skills with the ability to collaborate across the team and work closely with clients
  • Experience and/or interest in Test Driven Development (TDD) and agile
  • Strong communication skills and an interest in a pair-programming environment where you will accelerate your knowledge and skills quickly
  • Experience working in a continuous integration and delivery model
  • Experience working directly with clients, leading project teams, and mentoring engineers
  • Experience in analyzing, designing, and developing large and complex code bases and software systems, including API design techniques, to improve overall design and keep them clean and maintainable
  • Comfortable working in a rapidly growing tech company where roles, responsibilities, and projects are constantly evolving – aka “status loco!”

Perks:

  • Once in a lifetime opportunity to work on cutting edge projects with Fortune 500 companies
  • Our ‘Disconnect’ events are a chance to get out of the office and unwind as a team (like our recent ‘Disconnect’ to Algonquin Park)
  • Weekly team socials to have fun and hangout
  • Company sponsored recreational sports teams that play every week
  • Fully stocked kitchen with snacks, fresh fruit, drinks and coffee
  • Catered Lunch & Learns
  • In office HoloLens, 3D printer, robots, and other state-of-the-art gear you’ve wanted to get your hands on

You’ll be working on things like:

  • Building impactful products for Fortune 500 clients
  • Creating simple, clean code to power new user-facing product features
  • Maintaining a high level of performance quality and having a reputation for shipping quality product
  • Collaborating, teaching and learning with fellow engineers, designers, product managers, and our clients
  • Being reliable, taking ownership and making a big impact
  • Producing repeatable and predictable delivery of features
