What they need
- The Digital Twin Platform team at Instacart is on a mission to understand exactly what is on store shelves at any given moment
- Inventory intelligence is foundational to some of Instacart’s most critical products — from search and logistics to enterprise AI solutions for grocers of all sizes
- Our team owns the end-to-end data supply chain, spanning ingestion and integration of partner data sources, collection of in-store inventory observations, model development, serving, and product integrations across the Instacart ecosystem
- We’re a growing team sitting at the intersection of physical retail and cutting-edge technology, working closely with Caper, Inventory Intelligence, and Fulfillment to bring real-time shelf intelligence to life
- If you’re curious about what that looks like in practice, you can read more about our work here:
- Instacart Enterprise AI Solutions for Grocers
- Instacart Acquires Arpalus to Advance Real-Time Shelf Intelligence
- We’re looking for a Senior Android Engineer to help us build the next generation of Android-native applications that power our store view and Connected Stores programs
- This is a net new role on a team that is scaling fast — you’ll have real ownership, work on complex and novel technical problems, and see your work directly shape how grocers and shoppers experience Instacart technology in the physical world
- Design, build, and own Android applications for the Digital Twin Platform, including standalone scanning apps and Android-native experiences supporting Connected Stores initiatives such as Food Storm and Caper Cart integrations
- Serve as a technical leader for Android development on the team, setting architectural direction, establishing best practices, and raising the bar for code quality and engineering craft across a growing platform
- Collaborate closely with cross-functional partners across the Caper, Inventory Intelligence, and Fulfillment teams to deliver Android solutions that support real-time shelf intelligence and in-store data collection at scale
- Operate in a fast-moving, highly ambiguous environment where the roadmap evolves as the store view program grows — you’ll need to balance long-term architectural thinking with the ability to ship and iterate quickly
- Contribute to a team that is building something genuinely new — as the Android needs across our organization expand, you’ll help define what Android engineering looks like for the Digital Twin Platform and beyond- Strong communication and collaboration skills, with experience working across cross-functional engineering teams
- Experience designing and building Android applications from the ground up, including owning architecture decisions end to end
- 5+ years of professional Android development experience using Kotlin and/or Java, with a track record of shipping production-quality Android applications
- Deep expertise in Android SDK, Jetpack libraries, and modern Android architecture patterns (MVVM, Clean Architecture, etc.)
- Demonstrated ability to work effectively in ambiguous, fast-paced environments where requirements evolve and priorities shift
- Experience building Android applications for non-consumer contexts such as enterprise tools, hardware integrations, kiosk applications, or scanning/barcode workflows
- Familiarity with Connected Stores technology, retail hardware platforms, or embedded Android environments (e.g., Caper Carts or similar smart cart/device ecosystems)
- Experience with Bluetooth, NFC, camera APIs, or other hardware peripheral integrations on Android devices
- Background in data-intensive applications, real-time data pipelines, or inventory/logistics systems
- Comfort contributing to adjacent technical domains (backend services, data engineering) and a desire to grow beyond a purely Android-focused scope over time
