About the Position
As a Senior Android Engineer, you will aim to enhance the Raise app across several, meaningful updates rather than all at once. At Raise, we work carefully but iterate quickly, and we like to spend time choosing the right tools for the job. We value on-the-job learning and skills development, so while working knowledge of ReactiveJava/RxJava/MVVM is a plus, it’s not required—we’re happy to help you expand your skillset.

When it comes to work product, the ideal candidate prioritizes user needs over the technical feasibility of implementing them and appreciates a meticulous attention to detail when it comes to designing an app’s look and feel. You know how to prioritize considerations like performance and accessibility. Most of all, you care about people and making their lives better through your work.

Responsibilities

  • Partner with mobile engineers, designers, product managers, researchers, and data scientists to develop highly functional and elegantly delightful experiences that enrich the lives of Raise members
  • Write maintainable code efficiently within an environment that emphasizes thoughtful design, continuous integration and rapid deployment
  • Break down daunting problems into manageable pieces and efficiently complete tasks with minimal supervision
  • Research industry trends and best practices

Skills & Qualifications

  • You’re curious—you’ve developed a customer-facing mobile app as part of a team before and perhaps you’ve released a few apps of your own
  • Experience working with the Android SDK required; RxJava and MVVM a plus
  • Experience with automated continuous integration/deployment and Google Play Store distribution
  • Experience implementing Android Pay and/or Samsung Pay via SDKs such as Stripe or Braintree
  • Experience parsing JSON APIs into secure local storage, such as with Realm
  • Experience implementing material design across a variety of Android devices
  • Familiarity with Firebase Cloud Messaging and Android API levels 19 and above
  • High attention to detail and constructive attitude in peer code reviews and mentorship
  • Bachelor’s in Computer Science, Computer Engineering or comparable experience

Benefits

  • Comprehensive benefits package including health, dental, vision, 401(K) with match that is 100% vested from day one, company paid short term and long-term disability and life insurance
  • Flexible Paid Time Off Policy
  • Raise Gives Back, paid time off for volunteering
  • Pre-tax commuter program
  • 16 weeks paid maternity leave
