About Rivian

Rivian is on a mission to keep the world adventurous forever. This goes for the emissions-free Electric Adventure Vehicles we build, and the curious, courageous souls we seek to attract.

As a company, we constantly challenge what’s possible, never simply accepting what has always been done. We reframe old problems, seek new solutions and operate comfortably in areas that are unknown. Our backgrounds are diverse, but our team shares a love of the outdoors and a desire to protect it for future generations.

Role Summary

Since 2023, the Swedish ABetterRouteplanner (ABRP) team has been part of Rivian, providing Rivian vehicles, app and web with the world’s most advanced and trusted trip EV planning backend. Last year we formed Rivian Volkswagen Technologies (RVT) to bring the Rivian digital architecture and software stack to Volkswagen brand electric vehicles. RVT will bring end-to-end SW - including the user experience - to the Rivian vehicles (R1, R2 and R3) as well as e.g. the Volkswagen ID.EVERY1 and many more models to come.

We are now expanding in Lund with more RVT development teams, including end-to-end responsibility for the ABRP team to include trip planning functionality - from backend to UI - in both the vehicle and the mobile app.

As a Senior Android Engineer, you will focus on bringing more great EV trip planning features and even better trip planning experience into the Rivian Android App. This is a unique opportunity to join a focused, empowered team and take ownership of the mobile component of a feature that is central to the Rivian trip planning experience.

  • Own the development and testing of the core Trip Planner experience within the Rivian Android App.
  • Collaborate closely with your counterparts in Backend and Infotainment to create a cohesive and consistent user experience across all platforms.
  • Consume and present complex routing data from the ABRP engine.
  • Implement, enhance, and refine core user-facing functionality.
  • Drive the technical roadmap for the core Trip Planner feature on Android.
  • Automate tests and integrate with our CI build pipelines to ensure high quality and reliability.
  • Troubleshoot, triage, debug, and resolve bugs and performance issues in the mobile application.

Qualifications

  • 5+ years of professional experience in mobile app development.
  • A bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or an equivalent field.
  • Proven experience leading feature development for Android using Kotlin.
  • Advanced expertise in Kotlin, Coroutines, and Flow.
  • Strong understanding of setting up build pipelines and DevOps for mobile applications.
