Job Description - Grade Specific

Android Application Developer

Role Summary

  • We’re hiring an Android Applications Developer to build and ship Android applications for automotive infotainment systems.
  • You will contribute to end-to-end software development for multi-brand OEM apps, integrate backend APIs that drive features and help with test automation.
  • This is an app-development role (Java/Kotlin) focused on production quality, performance and compliance with car UX and safety standards.

Responsibilities

  • Build AAOS apps using modern Android components, compliant with in-vehicle HMI and driving safety constraints (glanceability, rotary/D-pad/voice).
  • Contribute to clean, testable architecture (MVVM/MVI, coroutines/Flow, DI with Hilt) and robust background work.
  • Implement data/networking layers: consume backend APIs, caching (Room/SQLite), error handling, retries, and offline behavior.
  • Use Git daily: feature branches, rebasing/merging, tags/releases; create well-scoped PRs and perform code reviews with clear, actionable feedback.
  • Maintain CI/CD and test automation pipelines with basic quality gates (unit and instrumentation tests).
  • Work with Android for Cars App Library templates (media, navigation, etc.) and host validation.
  • Participate in the team’s agile development process; document architecture/ADRs, risks, and learnings.

Required

Skills and Qualifications:

  • 2–5 years of Android application development in Java and Kotlin (Kotlin-first; strong Java interop).
  • Solid programming fundamentals: object-oriented design, multithreading, memory management.
  • Production-level Android development with coroutines/Flow, DI, background execution, and modern architecture (MVVM/MVI).
  • Testing: unit (JUnit) and basic instrumentation tests; writes testable code and uses test doubles.
  • AOSP/AAOS familiarity (platform concepts, in-vehicle constraints, template-driven HMI).
  • Git proficiency in a team setting; PR workflows and code-review etiquette.
  • Clear communication of trade-offs; operates autonomously with documented decisions; collaborates across teams.
  • Comfortable with agile practices and tools (e.g., SAFe, Confluence, Jira).
  • Working knowledge of software life-cycle methodologies and releasing production apps.

Preferred

  • Familiarity with Jetpack Compose and modern Android UI patterns
  • AIDL/Binder IPC, bound services, and multi-process patterns.
  • Experience with Google Automotive Services (GAS) and/or Android for Cars App Library (templates, rotary/voice).
  • CI/CD setup (GitHub Actions/Gradle) and deeper test automation
  • Release engineering: Gradle configuration, build types/flavors, app signing, staged rollouts.

Out Of Scope For This Role

  • Owning backend services or infrastructure, kernel/BSP work, or ML model training/research.
  • Android Auto (phone projection) as a primary focus—this role targets built-in AAOS.
