Senior Android Developer
Hallow
What You'll Do
- Build the Hallow App: Build a best-in-class native Kotlin mobile app to help our users pray and meditate around the world
- Craft the Product: Work closely within a product pod alongside other developers and designers in an agile environment to implement designs, interfaces, and animations into our app.
- Collaborate: Participate in design and code reviews, working closely with other devs.
- Optimize: Architect frameworks for allowing A/B testing of content, fine-tune media streaming to enable our content to be accessible worldwide
What You'll Love
- Mission: This work is incredibly humbling. Every day we get amazing stories and get the pleasure of working on something that impacts lives. One of my favorite user quotes: “I hate quoting an old, overused cliche, but I’ve been very lost. And I think for the first time in a while I may be found.”
- Ownership: You’ll be a massive part of our growth. There’s nothing more exciting than being able to see your work touch thousands of lives around the world and truly build a world-class experience with every email, push notification, blog, and more. You’ll be doing that every day.
- Growth: From day 1, you’ll be a part of the startup journey. We’re growing quickly, and we’ll need your help to continue to build out features and functionality for our users in our Android app.
- Flexibility: We operate as a remote-first team with members all over the globe and are open to candidates anywhere in the U.S. or Canada for this position. We don’t care when or where you work, just that it gets done! That being said, our HQ is in Chicago and if in-person work is something you are interested in, we’d love to have you there
- Comp: We will pay competitive market rates in terms of equity, cash, & benefits.
What We're Looking For
- Passion: First & foremost, we’re looking for someone excited about our mission. It makes it a lot more fun :)
- Experience: A foundation of 5+ years of experience in Kotlin and Android development in general; experience working on other apps that use Media3 or media streaming; an attention to detail with regards to design and crafting user interfaces, especially utilizing Jetpack Compose; knowledge of application architecture and design.
- Grit & Detail-Oriented: We really care about what we’re doing & try to build as fast as we can. Since we’re guided meditation and competing with some large players in the market (Calm, Headspace), we have to stand out. Everything we do, say, send, or spend money on should be top-notch quality and set Hallow apart as the best.
