Every single day, Meetup brings people together in thousands of cities, all around the world to do more of what they want to do in life. To continue helping these communities grow, and to help new ones form, we want your help. Senior Android Engineers are leaders of the team, we get to craft code that enables more people to learn, teach, and explore life through mobile. If you're applying for this role, you excel not only technically, but also in your ability to collaborate with your teammates. More than other engineers, you take the lead in making architecture decisions, estimating project time frames, and mentoring more junior engineers. You should be an advocate for Android best practices, great usability, and exceptional quality.

We invite you to join us in this mission and making Meetup more mobile, lightweight, and personal; the best possible experience on every platform.

What you get to do:

  • Focus on building out the next major release of the flagship Meetup app
  • Work with API engineers to define how data should be structured and delivered
  • Partner with designers to ensure that the app is beautiful and that it adheres to Android platform conventions
  • Make critical engineering decisions by defining the app features with our Product Team

Ideally, you have:

  • Experience developing a quality Android application from conception to launch on the Google Play Store
  • A solid grasp of most of these areas on Android: networking, building layouts, threading, and animation
  • Commitment to the company's core mission of cultivating local community worldwide
  • A love of good software and design

Bonus points for:

  • Shipping multiple apps seen by millions
  • Organizing local meetups

If this sounds as exciting to you as it does to us, please send us a few examples of apps you've worked on for further consideration. We can't wait to hear from you!

An Insider's view of Meetup

How would you describe the company’s work-life balance?

Meetup promotes a healthy balance and respect around work life, personal life, and family life. It's not simply policy but instead, the culture that lives with all employees (managers and leaders included). Work happens during our traditional business hours.

Harry Chiu

Head of Recruiting

What does your typical day look like?

As an engineer at Meetup, my mission is to build things that help product teams focus on our users and develop our product faster and with better quality. My team mob programs or pair programs by default, which works great for us because it increases code and architecture, knowledge sharing, focus, productivity and team bonding.
