Android Developer

I have partnered with a rapidly scaling sports company as they look for someone to come in as their first Android developer to replicate the success of their iOS offering.

It is a company that has been around for 2 years now and is massively popular across multiple mediums including social media and streaming platforms. However, they are now looking to grow their tech teams even further as they look to keep growing into newer markets. They are massively funded from multiple sources and are fully stable despite their youthfulness in the market.

As such, they need someone who can build in a scrappy and start-up sort of way where resources and requirements might not always be clear. In return, you'll get absolute full autonomy and ownership over the whole Android product without having to deal with a lot of the usual bureaucracy.

They have an office near Dagenham and building a new one in London as well, however, they are fully remote within their tech teams with occasion meet-ups for team days. They have built a successful tech culture around this and look to continue it.

What They Are Looking For:

• 4+ years of experience in Android development with some start-up exposure as a must have
• Showcased ability in building with scrappy requirements and knowing how to create ideas fast
• Experience in Kotlin + Jetpack Compose
• Understanding of OpenAPI specs
• Exposure to working/having an interest in streaming or sports is a massive positive - especially around Android widgets + hardware connections

Cultural Fit:

• Being able to thrive in an environment where you might be a sole developer
• Strong capability working remotely if needed
• Understanding working environments within start-ups and knowing how to create ideas fast and being able to communicate it in an effective way by creating solutions

The role is offering up to £80k on the base plus benefits. We are looking at a fully remote setup with very occasional days out with the team.
