Have you ever wondered what it would be like to part of a team creating new, life-changing technologies? Do you enjoy the close tie between product and development teams? Are you an impassioned learner always looking to improve? Are you stubborn enough to keep searching for a needle in the haystack (assuming the needle is worth searching for)? Do you play nice with both machines and humans? If you answered yes to all these questions, then read on!

AirMap is looking for a Senior Android Engineer to join our team.
 

As an AirMap Software Engineer you will work on a next generation system that utilizes highly optimized algorithms (some written by you) to consume vast amounts of data to produce minimum-risk paths, map tiles, and decisions in milliseconds to run in backend services. In other words, you will write software in order to figure out how to get an aircraft to a given location safely. You’ll have to take into account terrain, buildings, people, and how the drone flies (e.g., battery life and speed).

Reach out for a conversation if:

• You have 5+ years of professional Android development experience
• You have 8+ years of general professional development experience
• You have a good understanding and experience with NDK and JNI
• You can demonstrate mastery of the Android Application Architecture
• You have basic C++ knowledge

Bonus points if:

• You have cross platform development experience, e.g., React Native or Felgo
• You have worked on video games
• You have experience with Qt/QML
• You have worked with the military
  
   

Some other things that matter:

You enjoy solving problems. You love taking on difficult tasks and finding creative solutions. You don’t get flustered easily. If you don’t know the answer, you’ll dig until you find it.

You like helping people. You enjoy getting people to those aha! Moments. You are patient, level-headed, and cool under pressure. Teaching someone something new makes you happy.

You pay attention to the details. As far as you’ve concerned, anything worth doing is worth doing right, every single time. You stay focused, and nothing falls through the cracks on your watch.

You think on your feet. You like learning new things, and you can learn quickly. When things change, you know how to roll with the punches.

You communicate clearly and directly. You write well. You speak eloquently. You can explain just about anything to anyone, and you’re comfortable communicating in writing and on the phone. You’re not afraid to have a productive debate and share your opinion.

You are motivated and driven. You volunteer for new challenges without waiting to be asked. You’re going to take ownership of the time you spend with us and truly make a difference.

What we offer:

AirMap’s software engineers are creative visionaries from all over the world who joined the team to push the boundaries of what is possible. You will work on cutting edge technology and create many things from the ground up.

Join a team that will support you, encourage you, and push you to be better through meaningful dialogue, code reviews, and system design.

We offer competitive pay and benefits, flexibility to work from home, and the opportunity to work on something truly innovative.
