About the Role

We’re looking for an experienced Android Engineer (Engineer 6) to join a dynamic, multi-platform app engagement team working on a large-scale, high-traffic B2C e-commerce platform. The goal of this project is to increase app engagement and weekly active users by enhancing the shopping experience to be more seamless, personalized, and conversion-driven.

You’ll play a key role in developing and optimizing Android features using Kotlin and Jetpack Compose, while helping to address technical debt and contribute to architectural improvements (including a migration to Graph architecture).

This is an opportunity for a senior engineer who can step in quickly, operate independently, and drive technical excellence across the Android stack.

• Address and reduce technical debt; support architectural migration initiatives.
• Participate actively in technical discussions, demonstrating strong problem-solving and solution-oriented thinking.

Required Skills & Experience

• 8+ years of professional experience in Android development.
• Strong proficiency in Kotlin and Jetpack Compose (must-have).
• Experience with Coroutines and modern Android architecture principles.
• Knowledge of GraphQL is a plus.
• Proven background in e-commerce or other high-traffic B2C applications.
• Experience working directly for companies (not exclusively via agencies).
• Demonstrated ability to quickly onboard and deliver impact in existing projects.
• Excellent communication skills and flexibility to adapt to changing team or office arrangements.

What We’re Looking For

We’re seeking an engineer who doesn’t just write great code, but also:

• Thinks solution-first when faced with technical or project challenges.
• Can adapt to new team structures, project scopes, or office day changes.
• Has strong technical depth across the Android ecosystem and a passion for scalable, maintainable solutions.
• Has been working in the Netherlands for at least 2 years.

Project Context

This role is part of an App Engagement initiative, focused on increasing weekly active users and revenue through a more dynamic, consistent, and trustworthy shopping experience. The successful candidate will directly contribute to improving the app’s engagement, performance, and conversion metrics.
