Android Developer

Role Description

We're hiring a Junior Android Developer to help build the mobile experience for collectors to use every day from managing their collections, connecting with the community, and opening Instapacks.

• Work closely with the CTO and engineering team to ship features across our Android app.
• This is a hands-on product engineering role for someone early in their career who already knows how to build in Kotlin and Jetpack Compose, has worked with GraphQL, and wants to grow quickly inside a fast-moving startup.
• You won't be handed endless tickets in a giant backlog; you'll work on real product problems.
• Learn from one of the leading mobile engineers and see your work go directly into the hands of passionate collectors.
• If you love trading cards or collector communities, and want to level up fast, this is a role for you.

Qualifications

• Around 3 years of Android development experience.
• Comfortable building with Kotlin and Jetpack Compose.
• Experience with GraphQL or sufficient API experience to ramp quickly.
• Care about product quality, UI polish, and the little details that make an app feel good.
• Early in your career but serious about getting better; seeking feedback, mentorship, and real responsibility.
• Comfortable in a fast-moving startup where priorities can shift.
• Knowledge of the trading-card or collector world.

Requirements

• Get the app running locally, understand the core product flows, and ship your first meaningful fixes or small features within the first 30 days.
• Regularly ship Android work with support from the CTO and mobile lead by day 90.
• Take a well-scoped feature or improvement, ask the right questions, implement it cleanly, test it, and get it into production.
• Become a reliable Android contributor across important parts of the product by the end of year one.
• Ship meaningful improvements to the collector experience and grow your Kotlin and Jetpack Compose craft.

Benefits

• Competitive startup compensation, meaningful equity upside, and a salary range of $120,000-$140,000.
• Full benefits: health, dental, and vision coverage, 401(k), and a wellness stipend.
• A monthly dogfooding budget to spend on cards.
