You’ll be committing, reviewing and shipping new code right from the first week! RequirementsAs an Android engineer, you’ll report to and catch-up regularly with a mobile lead engineer who will support you on your journey in Engine. We have a strong collaborative and open culture here so you’ll find support outside your team too.&nbsp;As a fully digital bank, we are looking for engineers that are able to understand and prioritise security when implementing new features, fixing bugs or making technical improvements, across all the layers.

When adopting new technologies we always consider as a team whether it’s the best choice for our product and our users.&nbsp;We are currently in the process of building a number of SDKs for our clients utilising the modules we’ve already created in the Starling UK App. We’ll be using these to support the development of an app in Romania with SaltBank and build an entirely new banking app for one of our partners in Australia called AMP Bank, a really exciting opportunity! In the Engine SDKs we generally aim to use the latest technology as our clients would expect, but, we also rely heavily on the existing Starling codebase which uses some older libraries too, so you’ll need a good understanding of a wide range of libraries and technologies.&nbsp; We use Dagger, Realm, Retrofit, Coil, Compose, Coroutines and Compose, but there’s still a lot of work to do migrating from XML layouts and RxJava2.Building SDKs that we plan to launch internationally can present some new challenges, so if you’ve ever had experience maintaining a library, contributing to OSS, or have dealt with Internationalisation we’d love to hear about it. If that’s all new to you, don’t worry, we’re learning too!We want our app to look great for the Android platform and have worked closely with our designers to set up a component library and have themed our app accordingly. Feature parity is important to us so Android and iOS apps are often built alongside each other.&nbsp;As a team we meet together every week to talk through pain points and potential improvements we’ll like to make to the project. We regularly meet in real life to attend conferences and meet-ups together too!&nbsp;Interview processInterviewing is a two way process and we want you to have the time and opportunity to get to know us, as much as we are getting to know you!
