The purpose is to help them stay ahead and offer attractive and relevant services - now and in the future.

Who are you?

You are open-minded, flexible, and thrive under challenging and changing conditions. As a person, you are a curious, innovative, and analytical problem solver. You enjoy teamwork and have an inclusive approach to your work. You deliver high-quality Kotlin code following Android development best practices and feel great ownership of the code you produce.

Team description:

The team is cross-functional and consists of both back-end developers and app developers (for Android and iOS). The back-end part of the team delivers standard APIs from which the apps get their data. Our software products provide connected services in the journey intelligence area for several automotive OEMs. You will be working very closely with fellow App developers, as well as with the Product Owner, Scrum Master, and UX Designers. The work includes both independent tasks and pair-programming sessions.

  • Fixing known bugs in existing Android applications and adding new features
  • Working with external & internal software libraries, SDKs, and APIs to incorporate additional functionalities into the app
  • Working with UX/UI designers to turn design templates into a polished user interface, and coordinating with back-end developers to integrate data and services via APIs
  • Providing technical guidance and suggesting different strategies to move projects forward, leveraging your broad understanding of mobile app development challenges
