Senior Android Engineer, Core Sensing

Oura’s engineering organization consists of talented developers distributed across the EU and US. For day-to-day feature work, our engineers are organized into smaller cross-functional, geolocation-specific feature squads or teams. Our squads have a great deal of autonomy and are responsible for the development and architecture of their features. Squads take full ownership of their code and handle everything from concepting, design and implementation to release, maintenance and bug fixes. 

Your team, the Core Sensing Squad, is a platform team making sure that the signals collected from the ring are available in the app for other feature teams to build on top of. As such we oversee a large variety of sensing measurements and design complex technical solutions to ensure that the end to end features built on top of them works as intended. In addition to building the plumbing, we also explore new sensing areas that might not yet have another home. We also focus on evaluating and integrating new cutting edge algorithms into our product. We are a small but ambitious team, developing features that are at the edge of what is possible with modern Android phones. If this sounds interesting, come join us!

• →Work in a passionate and senior team on cutting edge problems in the tech and health domains. 
• →Architect, design, build and maintain features to the Oura Android app using Kotlin, Compose, Room, Coroutines and Flow.
• →Work in a cross functional squad together with a passionate group of engineers, designers, data scientists, our product manager, health science experts and other stakeholders.
• →Refactor existing features to improve code quality, performance, and maintainability.
• →Ensure high quality through code reviews, automatic testing, and engineering best practices.

We would love to have you on our team if you have:

• A minimum of 5 years of professional development experience:
• either shipping Android apps. In this case we expect you to have deep experience with Kotlin, Jetpack Compose, and modern Android app architectures as well as strong fundamentals in Android platform APIs.
