Senior Software Engineer (Android, AI-Native Client Platform)

• We’re rebuilding how NewsBreak ships mobile software. An in-house auto-dev bot already lands reviewed PRs daily — most merged client PRs start from an agent
• Engineers here don’t just write features: they design the architecture, conventions, and guardrails that let humans and AI build together safely, across our flagship app and a matrix of new products (Lite, short-drama, local).
• This is a builder role with a dual mandate: roughly half your time advances the platform, half ships business impact — and the point is that the first keeps shrinking the cost of the second
• Architect Android systems — from our flagship app to 0-to-1 new products — so every codebase stays legible to both engineers and AI agents
• Drive modularization: extract shared capabilities so they ship once and run across apps
• Ship user-facing features end-to-end — growth, feed, and new-app product needs — through the same AI-assisted workflow you’re improving: your platform work is measured by how much faster these ship
• Set the quality bar for AI-assisted development: review standards, safety nets, release gates
• Solve the hardest performance and production problems, and turn what you learn into playbooks the whole team builds on
