Description

  • Drive and define Android experiences across Maps, Realtime, Feed, Notifications, History, and coordination features.
  • Partner with technical leads across multiple teams to align on patterns, architectural guardrails, and execution plans.
  • Help sequence work and guide teams toward a cohesive, long-term product experience.
  • Unblock complex technical challenges through prototypes, deep code reviews, and hands-on problem solving.
  • Write production code while focusing on high-leverage work that improves team velocity and architectural consistency.
  • Direct AI agents through the full development loop from problem framing through code, review, and shipping.
  • Build instrumentation and quality gates into features from the start to verify whether they are working.
  • Promote AI-native practices such as agentic workflows, automated tracking, and LLM-assisted validation across the Experiences team.
  • Collaborate closely with Design to create polished, intuitive, and emotionally expressive interactions.

Requirements

  • 8+ years of experience building consumer-facing Android applications at scale, ideally in high-engagement, high-MAU products.
  • Deep expertise in Kotlin and modern Android development practices, including Jetpack Compose, Coroutines, and Architecture Components.
  • Strong architectural skills with the ability to define patterns and guide technical direction across multiple teams.
  • Experience leading complex, multi-team initiatives and delivering cohesive end-to-end user experiences.
  • Ability to influence product direction through technical insight, clear framing, and thoughtful tradeoff evaluation.
  • Demonstrated strength as a hands-on technical multiplier through mentorship, deep reviews, prototyping, and unblocker-level problem solving.
  • Active use and development of AI coding agents in day-to-day work, with examples of AI-directed output you owned and shipped.
  • Ability to think in problems rather than tasks and shape what gets built, not just how it is built.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Computer Engineering, Mathematics, or a related technical field.

Benefits

  • Competitive pay and benefits, including equity.
  • Medical, dental, vision, life, and disability insurance plans, with 100% employer-paid coverage for US employees.
  • 401(k) with company matching in the US and RRSP with DPSP for Canadian employees.
  • Employee Assistance Program (EAP) for mental wellness.
  • Flexible PTO plus 12 company-wide days off each year.
  • Learning and Development programs.
  • Equipment, tools, and reimbursement support for a productive remote work environment.
  • Free Life360 Platinum Membership for your preferred circle.
