Senior Android Engineer

Who you are

• We care more about how you think and grow than how many years you've worked
• You dream big, move fast, and communicate clearly, but depth counts as much as speed: we want both product-minded builders and engineers with real systems depth, and treat AI as leverage, not a novelty
• You learn fast, apply immediately, and keep adapting as the tools and workflows change
• You communicate like an owner
• You drive things to completion
• You're genuinely curious about AI and how to wield it
• You take proactive ownership
• You think you walk further with a team than alone, and you bring a positive attitude
• You have taste for quality and judgment about where it matters — you can tell a defect that genuinely hurts the product from one that's merely 'not how I'd have done it,' and you spend your energy on the first
• You keep your Android and Computer Science fundamentals sharp instead of outsourcing your understanding to the model
• Solid Android (Kotlin) experience. You understand the Android lifecycle: Activities, Fragments, Services
• Comfort building UI in Jetpack Compose (or strong evidence you can pick it up fast)
• You've shipped or contributed to real Android features. Side projects count if they're real
• You've used AI coding tools (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, similar) to build, test, or automate something. Expect to walk us through something real you've built with AI
• You understand the value of unit tests, feature toggles, and A/B testing
• Strong English for code, comments, and communication
• A strong passion for mobile and Android in particular
• Real systems depth on at least one axis — concurrency, performance, memory, app architecture, or debugging gnarly production issues. When an agent hands you 500 lines, you can tell what's load-bearing and what's quietly wrong
• GraphQL experience
• Media3 experience
• Experience building agentic workflows, custom MCP servers, or AI-driven tooling beyond prompt-and-paste
• CI/CD pipelines (GitLab CI a plus)
• Familiarity with subscription or payment flows
• You're a listener yourself — you use podcasts and audiobook apps, notice when the experience is great or annoying, and bring those opinions into what you build

What the job involves

• Build and improve features in the Membership domain: auth (login, refresh tokens, account), paywalls & offers, subscriptions & plans, billing and payments (Google Play Billing), plus adjacent work in sharing and notifications
• Use AI coding agents (Claude Code, Codex, similar) as a primary tool, not just a chat assistant. Automate the repetitive work and point that leverage at outcomes that move the product — not raw output volume
• Participate in product and design discussions with product managers, designers, other engineers, and UX researchers
• Write unit tests, gate features behind toggles, and ship safely with A/B tests
• Contribute to Android tooling and to how Podimo adopts agentic workflows across the organization
• Review and verify AI-generated code as a first-class part of the job — read diffs critically, catch the subtle bugs agents introduce, and decide what's actually safe to ship
