Lead Android Engineer – Autonomous Systems – London
Ready to step up from Senior to Lead? If you love deep technical challenges and customers who depend on your app working anytime, anywhere - this one's for you.
The Role:
You'll design and optimise mission-critical networking layers for autonomous systems, solving problems like:
- Low-level protocol design (sockets, WebSockets) for unreliable environments
- Bulletproof offline functionality – think ride-sharing app resilience, but for defence tech
- Real-time data streaming with strict performance requirements
You're the missing piece if you:
- Have 5+ years Android experience (Kotlin/Java) and know Jetpack inside out
- Live for networking challenges – sync conflicts, spotty connections, and edge cases are your specialty
- Want true ownership of architecture (no micromanagement, just hard problems to solve)
- Have battle scars from high-stakes apps (ride-sharing, delivery, or similar is perfect)
Why this isn't just another Android job:
- Your work enables autonomous systems that operate in critical scenarios
- You'll join a tight-knit team of experts (founders included) who ship impactful tech
- Growth potential: Equity in a well-funded startup tackling the hardest problems in defence
- Perks that matter: Competitive salary, visa support, top-tier equipment, health/dental, and free breakfast and lunch daily
