The Role: Software Engineer, Android
Airtable's Android app presents a rare opportunity to design and develop novel mobile interfaces that elegantly support a wide range of workflows so that our customers can organize anything, anywhere. In developing Airtable's Android app, we've taken great care to not simply port our web interface to mobile, but rather to design each interaction and animation in a mobile-first and touch-friendly way. We're looking for someone to pick up the reins and lead all things Android. You'll not only fully own the development of new features on Android, but also have the opportunity to rethink existing core Airtable features that currently have no mobile equivalent by creating them from scratch on Android.
What you'll do
- Take ownership and responsibility for designing, building, testing, iterating, releasing, and maintaining the Airtable Android application
- Work with cross functional peers (PM, Design) to define the product roadmap
- Analyze and visualize data to drive product insights and to inform our decisions
- Collaborate with the mobile and broader-engineering team to develop requirements and validate technical specifications for your solutions
- Work autonomously and with QA to ensure the safety, effectiveness, and reliability of Airtable’s systems and our customers data
- Provide mentorship and feedback to teammates to make your team the best version of itself. Motivate and encourage everyone to give their best work.
Who you are
- You have 3+ years of Android development experience.
- You have extensive experience with developing high-quality, UI-rich Android apps — as a bonus, we’d love to see your apps in the Play Store!
- You have deep knowledge of Java and/or Kotlin
- You have strong product and design sensibilities, and enjoy perfecting the details that matter
- You take a thoughtful approach to decision making; knowing when to move fast and when to do things right
