The Role

We are looking for a Senior SDK engineer (specialized in Android) to join our Monetization and Paywalls team to help design, build, ship, and support end-to-end features and products that will help developers make more money by providing tools needed to maximize monetization.

This role will primarily focus on our Android (Google platforms) SDK but also requires contributions to our iOS SDK and hybrid SDKs. Experience in these other platforms is not a requirement but the desire and excitement to work on them is.

About you:

  • You have 5+ years of experience in software, and have shipped mobile apps to Google Play/ App Store.
  • You are very experienced in Android, Kotlin, and Jetpack Compose.
  • You are not afraid of iOS or hybrid platforms.
  • You love making products for developers.
  • You love shipping good products.
  • You have deep empathy for customers.
  • You know how to ship high quality code using good testing practices in iterative cycles.
  • You collaborate well with others and can communicate effectively in a fully-remote culture.
  • You are proactive. When you see something broken, you jump on it to fix it or suggest improvements.
  • You move fast, test, and iterate quickly.
  • You ask questions when you're stuck on something.
  • You are excited to be part of a growing team.
