Staff Android Engineer

Responsibilities

We are representing a confidential market intelligence technology organization seeking a Staff Android Engineer to join their London team. In this hands-on Staff role with significant architectural ownership, you will:

• Own and evolve the Android platform foundation, defining architecture, modular boundaries, and native engineering patterns that deliver fast, reliable, and secure experiences
• Lead through hands-on Android system design, translating complex product and platform challenges into durable production architecture grounded in modern Android platform practices
• Improve reliability and delivery confidence by shaping how Android work is designed, reviewed, tested, shipped, and operated, including automation, observability, rollout practices, and AI-enabled validation
• Create clear mobile-facing system contracts by partnering with iOS, backend, product, and design teams to clarify API behavior, ownership boundaries, and platform expectations
• Raise mobile-system judgment across teams by establishing reusable standards and strengthening engineering decision-making for teams building native experiences

What We're Looking For

Required:

• Deep expertise in modern production Android architecture, with a track record of setting technical standards for a platform, product area, or native mobile domain
• Ability to represent mobile platform principles from a deep Android base, with enough iOS fluency to shape cross-functional architecture decisions affecting identity, reliability, release quality, observability, and native product outcomes
• Experience shaping mobile-facing platform contracts, API behavior, or backend service boundaries that improve product quality across native client experiences
• Ability to read, debug, and make targeted contributions to backend systems when needed to unblock mobile-facing outcomes
• Experience shaping AI-enabled engineering systems that improve validation, product quality, and delivery confidence for Android and broader mobile outcomes
• Strong reliability and release-quality judgment across production mobile systems, with experience raising quality standards for a platform or product area
• Track record making engineers around you better by turning complex mobile-system work into clear standards, reusable patterns, and stronger technical judgment across teams
• Excellent product judgment and communication skills, including the ability to connect technical decisions to customer outcomes and align teams around durable technical decisions

Preferred:

• Experience building Android product experiences across varied device and form-factor contexts, such as foldables, wearables, or other platform-native surfaces
• Experience with enterprise mobile environments where identity, device management, compliance, or security constraints shape architecture, including MDM/EMM
• Experience shaping mobile design-system foundations and design-to-code workflows that improve consistency, accessibility, development velocity, and AI-assisted UI generation across native platforms
