Android Engineer

About Aspora

People on the move deserve a bank that moves with them. Since 2022, Aspora has been building a borderless financial operating system that makes money as mobile and transparent as its users.

Backed by influential venture capitalists like Sequoia Capital, Greylock Partners, Hummingbird Ventures, Y Combinator & Global Founders Capital. We’re a team of 150+ across India, the UK, the UAE, EU and the US, working with extreme ownership, radical candour, and an obsession with customer impact.

We celebrate builders who question assumptions, ship fast, and turn regulatory complexity into elegant solutions. If you’re driven to redefine what global banking can be, we’d love to build the future with you.

About the Role

This role exists to build the mobile experience that millions of NRI users trust with their money. Android at Aspora isn’t a feature factory. It’s where the product becomes real: cross-border transfers, compliance-heavy onboarding, and real-time financial data, all inside a single app.

You’ll work directly with product and design to take features from concept to production. You’ll own entire surfaces, not just tickets. The bar is high: performance, reliability, and test coverage are non-negotiable in a regulated fintech at this scale.

Location: Bangalore In-office, 5 days a week.

What You’ll Own

• Build and ship Kotlin-first features across the full Android stack, from UI to data layer, for a global NRI banking app

• Own the architecture: define and enforce MVVM/MVI patterns, Clean Architecture, and dependency injection using Hilt across the mobile codebase

• Drive app performance: implement Baseline Profiles, R8/ProGuard, and structured concurrency to keep the experience fast on low-end devices

• Deliver test coverage across unit and integration layers using JUnit, MockK, Turbine, and Roborazzi with no corner-cutting

• Shape the offline-first data strategy: design Room schemas, manage Coroutine-based concurrency, and ensure reliability in low-connectivity environments

Who You Are

• 4–6 years in native Android development, ideally at a fintech, payments, or consumer startup where reliability and quality were table stakes.

• Fluent in Kotlin: Coroutines, Flow, Jetpack Compose, and the full Jetpack ecosystem are how you think, not what you look up

• Know your architecture: MVVM, MVI, Clean Architecture, and Repository pattern are defaults, not aspirations

• Strong on fundamentals: REST via Retrofit and OkHttp, offline-first storage, real-time polling, and push notifications with FCM

• High ownership. You treat a production bug at 2am as your problem, not the on-call’s

• Bias for execution: you ship, learn, and iterate. You don’t wait for perfect specs to start building

• Strong advantage: Kotlin Multiplatform (KMM) experience. Familiarity with Roborazzi for screenshot testing is a plus.

Why Aspora

• Build the Android app that defines how millions of NRIs move and manage money globally: your architecture decisions ship to production and matter at scale

• Work directly with founding engineers and product leaders: no layers, full context, and real influence over technical direction

• Gain deep exposure to regulated fintech: cross-border compliance, multi-currency flows, and real-time financial data across jurisdictions

• Own your roadmap: Aspora engineers define the engineering approach, not just execute it. You’ll write the playbook, not follow one

• Competitive salary, comprehensive benefits, and ESOPs aligned with Aspora’s long-term vision
