Senior Android Engineer

Noom is a digital healthcare company that connects people to content, coaching, community, and clinicians to build healthy habits and promote better living. We’re a mission-driven, high-growth organization that’s powered by science, technology, and world-class talent. 

We are seeking a Senior Android Engineer who is passionate about pushing mobile technologies to the limits. We value people who are not afraid to dig into other people’s code, think that code is the best documentation, and like to experiment with new technologies while understanding the risk of pushing them to production. We like to work with engineers who believe learning a concept is more important than learning a framework and pick technologies outside their comfort zone when they believe they’re the best tool for solving a particular problem.

As a senior member of our mobile team, you will help us develop new features that take advantage of the latest Android ecosystem trends and improve our existing systems. As we think of ourselves as mobile developers, you’ll also help review and improve our iOS code base.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Working on problems that affect the lives of real people. Our users depend on us to make positive changes to their health and their lives.
• Basing your work on scientifically-proven, peer-reviewed methodologies that are designed by medical professionals
• Collaborating with a team both onsite and offsite -- about 50% of our engineering team is fully remote; we worry about results, not time spent in seats.
• Making significant contributions to feature development on our existing applications
• Keeping up-to-date with latest trends in the Android ecosystem
• Be a core contributor to the maintenance and improvement of our existing systems
• As a senior member of the engineering team, you will also be a teacher and a leader, providing guidance, education, and support to the rest of the team on all things mobile!

What We’re Looking For

• 4+ years of large-scale Android experience in a team environment 
• A strong understanding of complex native mobile applications to help set the direction for Android as we scale
• Familiarity with Kotlin either in side projects or in full production code is required
• Willingness to learn some iOS when needed (we have a cross-platform mobile team)
• Ability to write code that is well structured, idiomatic, reusable, and easy to understand
• Excellent communicator: comfort explaining technical problems in person and in writing
• Team player: enjoys teaching new concepts to, and collaborating with, the team
• User-oriented: thoughtfulness when considering both our growing and our legacy users when implementing new features and updates, placing them as the priority
• Strong sense of responsibility and ownership; you will have come from an environment in which people are responsible for their own code
• Experience working with iOS is a plus

What Makes This Job Amazing

• You’ll be helping millions of people lead healthier lives every day
• You’ll experience huge learning & professional growth opportunities. Noom believes in supporting you; we’ll cover the cost of books, courses, conferences… you name it!
• You’ll become part of our transparent, high-performing, and close-knit team
• We guarantee you will learn a tremendous amount in a short time. There is a significant opportunity for advancement for those who value and excel in transparent, high-intensity, and high-impact environments.

Location
