Android Engineer (Remote - Mexico)

Summary Yelp engineering culture is driven by our values: we’re a cooperative team that values individual authenticity and encourages creative solutions to problems. All new engineers deploy working code their first week, and we strive to broaden individual impact with support from managers, mentors, and teams. At the end of the day, we’re all about helping our users, growing as engineers, and having fun in a collaborative environment. Want to join a remote team where your work makes a significant impact? Yelp is the richest source of local data in the world, and we build all that content into our location-aware mobile apps. With average build times being under a minute, full Kotlin adoption, and a state-of-the-art architecture, Yelp Android teams thrive by staying ahead of the curve. We encourage bold thinking and experimentation, whether you’re building prototypes or shipping features that reach millions of users. Come take our Yelp Android experience to the next level. As an Android engineer on the team, you will build consumer experiences for Yelp’s Guest Manager waitlist and reservations, drive traffic to restaurants, keep diners engaged during dining experiences, and grow Yelp’s user base. Additionally, you will build new features in the Yelp Business Owners app that enables service providers to successfully connect with consumers. This opportunity is fully remote and does not require you to be located in any particular area in Mexico. We welcome applicants from throughout Mexico. We’d love to have you apply, even if you don’t feel you meet every single requirement in this posting. At Yelp, we’re looking for great people, not just those who simply check off all the boxes. What you'll do: Build new features in Kotlin on top of modern open source foundations (Kotlin Coroutines, RxJava2, Retrofit, Glide, Koin, etc.). Improve and iterate (weekly release cycle, Multi-Module build) on existing functionality to reliably give our users a smooth experience. Collaborate with other engineers and share the skills you’ve learned. Be a key part of the larger Android developer community at Yelp. What it takes to succeed: Relevant experience with modern Android development technologies. Experience in Kotlin or Java and exposure to Android libraries, frameworks, and tools such as Jetpack Compose and MVI. Passion for building large systems with elegant interfaces and a responsive user experience. Eagerness to embrace challenges related to scalability, reliability, and performance. Enthusiasm for Yelp’s mission to connect people with great local businesses. What you'll get: This opportunity has the option to be fully remote in all locations across Mexico. Full responsibility to contribute to and lead projects from day one. A dynamic, collaborative, global and diverse team environment. Competitive salary and bonus structure. A competitive benefits package that includes paid time off and remote work reimbursements. Flexible working hours and meeting-free Wednesdays. Regular 3-day Hackathons and bi-weekly learning groups. Opportunities to participate in virtual events and conferences. Quarterly team offsites. Closing At Yelp, we believe that diversity is an expression of all the unique characteristics that make us human: race, age, sexual orientation, gender identity, religion, disability, and education — and those are just a few. We recognize that diverse backgrounds and perspectives strengthen our teams and our product. The foundation of our diversity efforts are closely tied to our core values, which include “Playing Well With Others” and “Authenticity.” We’re proud to be an equal opportunity employer and consider qualified applicants without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, ancestry, age, genetic information, sexual orientation, gender identity, marital or family status, veteran status, medical condition, disability, or any other protected status. We are committed to providing reasonable accommodations for individuals with disabilities in our job application process. If you need assistance or an accommodation due to a disability, you may contact us at accommodations-recruiting@yelp.com or 1-415-969-8488. Note: Yelp does not accept agency resumes.
