About This Opportunity

We are representing a confidential digital commerce organization in their search for a Senior Mobile Software Engineer (Android) based in Canada. Our client powers gaming and digital payment experiences used by millions of players and developers worldwide. This is your opportunity to own Android architecture decisions, ship polished Kotlin applications, and set the standard for AI-accelerated mobile engineering.

If you're passionate about building high-quality Android experiences that scale and love shipping apps in fast-paced, collaborative environments, we encourage you to apply through Get A Job.ai.

Responsibilities

• Design, build, and maintain native Android applications in Kotlin and Jetpack Compose used globally
• Deliver high-quality features throughout the development lifecycle, from technical design through release and post-launch iteration
• Own the full Android release process: signing, App Bundles, Play Console tracks, staged rollouts, pre-launch reports, and crash/ANR triage
• Implement best practices for Android development, including code review, automated testing strategies, and CI/CD pipelines
• Integrate payment systems and virtual currency features into mobile applications
• Design and implement scalable application architecture with focus on maintainability, performance, and developer experience
• Lead architectural decisions around modularization, dependency injection (Hilt/Dagger), navigation, and state management (MVVM, MVI)
• Configure and optimize Gradle builds, convention plugins, version catalogs, and build caching for fast, incremental builds
• Build and maintain internal Compose component libraries and design system implementations
• Partner with iOS and cross-platform engineers to maintain shared API contracts, design tokens, and feature flags
• Drive observability for mobile: structured logging, crash monitoring, performance tracing, and release health dashboards
• Use AI coding agents as a core part of daily workflow, building context and tooling that makes the team faster
• Design evaluation and guardrails for AI features, including prompt regression testing and fallback behavior
• Mentor engineers on AI-assisted development and help set quality-preserving standards
• Collaborate with product, design, backend, and QA teams across distributed, multi-timezone environments

What We're Looking For

Required Qualifications:

• 5+ years of professional Android development experience with deep, hands-on expertise in Kotlin
• Proven track record of shipping commercial Android applications currently live on Google Play
• Strong command of modern Android frameworks: Jetpack Compose, Coroutines and Flow, Lifecycle, Room, WorkManager, and Navigation
• Strong understanding of Android architecture patterns (MVVM, MVI, Clean Architecture), dependency injection, and state management
• Experience with automated testing: JUnit, Compose UI tests, Espresso, Robolectric, and CI/CD for Android release pipelines
• Solid grasp of performance, memory, and battery profiling using Android Studio Profiler, Macrobenchmark, and Baseline Profiles
• Experience building for fragmented device and OS-version landscapes, including large-screen and foldable form factors
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field (or equivalent experience)
• Proven, daily use of AI coding agents and AI-assisted development tools (Claude Code, Copilot, Cursor) to accelerate production work
• Experience with third-party integrations, REST/GraphQL APIs, and mobile SDK consumption
• Strong problem-solving abilities and results-driven approach
• Effective written and verbal communication skills

Nice to Have:

• Experience with app widgets, deep linking, push notifications (FCM), or background work at scale
• Experience bridging Kotlin modules into React Native, or with Kotlin Multiplatform
• Familiarity with Google Play Billing and alternative billing/external offer programs
• Familiarity with gaming ecosystems, virtual currency platforms, in-app purchases, or digital commerce flows
• Experience with mobile security practices: secure storage, certificate pinning, obfuscation, and fraud prevention
• Contributions to open source, technical writing, or conference talks in mobile or AI engineering
