Senior Staff Engineer, Android

Skills

About the Role

You will set technical direction for Android and the mobile-facing systems that shape product quality across customer workflows. Working from deep Android expertise, you will influence the architecture, standards, and system contracts that help teams build reliable native experiences across initiatives. This is a hands-on Senior Staff role with significant architectural ownership, multi-team leverage, and long-term product impact. You will help teams move faster while preserving the quality, reliability, and trust that enterprise mobile experiences require, including by shaping how AI-enabled development changes mobile engineering.

Requirements

• Deep expertise in modern production Android architecture, with a track record of setting technical standards beyond one feature team
• Ability to represent mobile platform principles from a deep Android base, with enough iOS fluency to shape cross-functional architecture decisions
• Experience shaping mobile-facing platform contracts or backend service boundaries that improve product quality across native and adjacent client surfaces
• Ability to read, debug, and contribute to backend systems when needed to unblock mobile-facing outcomes
• Experience shaping AI-enabled engineering systems that improve validation, product quality, and delivery confidence across teams
• Strong reliability and release-quality judgment across production mobile systems, with experience raising quality standards across multiple initiatives
• Track record making engineers around you better by turning complex mobile-system work into clear standards, reusable patterns, and stronger technical judgment
• Excellent product judgment and communication skills, including the ability to connect technical decisions to customer outcomes
• Experience building Android product experiences across varied device and form-factor contexts, such as foldables, wearables, Android Auto, 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

Responsibilities

• Define the technical direction for Android and the mobile-facing systems that make experiences fast, reliable, secure, and easier to evolve across teams
• Turn complex mobile-system problems into durable production architecture grounded in deep Android expertise
• Shape how mobile work is designed, reviewed, tested, shipped, and operated across initiatives, including automation, observability, rollout practices, and AI-enabled validation
• Help teams define the boundaries, ownership, and operating expectations for mobile-facing systems
• Turn complex mobile-system work into reusable standards and stronger engineering judgment for teams building native experiences
