Senior Android Engineer

Permanent employee, Full-time · Bratislava

What you'll do
  • We currently have 2 mobile applications written in ReactNative:
  1. PMcardio for Individuals
  2. PMcardio for Organizations
  • While they share many screens/elements, today, they don’t share a code base.
  • Your job will be to architect & rewrite both applications into Android Native with only minor feature changes.
  • Ideally, elements that are shared by both would be easily reusable components.
  • After we have both apps rewritten into Android Native, you will become the owner of both of them and continue maintaining & adding new features.
  • We foresee much bigger development in the PMcardio for Organizations app, with only minor adjustments to the Individual app. If an element used in both apps is updated, we will want to update both to feature this updated element.
  • We’re planning to eventually hire a second Android Engineer (once new significant features are conceived & validated with clinical partners). You’d be his lead and be deeply involved in the hiring process.
  • Given the processing power within new Android devices, we’re also considering running some AI components locally in the future, due to easier compliance processes.
  • We want to use the Android SDK to its full potential (where it makes business sense) – utilizing features such as Google Play In-App Purchases, widgets, etc.
  • We’re contemplating creating a patient-oriented version of PMcardio in the future, which would use the Wear OS as an ECG device.
  • We’ll also be hiring a Native iOS Engineer for this exact same purpose. 
What you need
  • Strong proficiency in Kotlin and Java. Due to the seniority of the role, we expect you to be solid in a few other programming languages. We write our BE in Python & use AWS, experience with that would be a small plus.
  • You have a passion for Android engineering and keep up-to-date with the latest possibilities, are an avid Google fan and Google I/O subscriber.
  • You understand technology is a tool to create a product which in turn allows us to run a profitable business. Technology is the means, not the business itself.
  • You can autonomously judge when it’s enough to light a match-stick vs. when you have to build a flamethrower (when to hack something together vs. when to build an enterprise-grade platform).
  • You have strong attention to detail and are bothered by things not looking smooth & streamlined.
  • You’ve been around for a few complex releases and you know how to delight Android users.
  • Deep understanding of mobile development lifecycle, including app architecture, design, testing and definition of done.
  • Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to debug and fix complex issues.
  • You understand that great products are built as a team effort.
  • Desire to make a meaningful impact on patient outcomes and natural curiosity.
