About The Position

As an Android Engineer II, you’ll build high-quality, high-performance experiences on our Android app that help small business owners reclaim time, reduce chaos, and manage their teams more intelligently. You’ll collaborate closely with product, design, and backend engineers to bring AI-driven features to life and push the boundaries of what mobile can do for small businesses. If you love crafting polished mobile experiences, obsessing over reliability, and using AI to improve engineering velocity and product outcomes, we want to hear from you. You’ll join the OAM (Owners and Managers) domain—core experiences that power how small business managers understand, grow, and staff their teams. HRM enables managers to know who their team is, what they do, and how they grow. SB drives how teams are staffed, how shifts are created, and how AI accelerates better scheduling decisions. Payroll drives employees' payments, holidays, and more.
