The Role
At WHOOP, we're on a mission to unlock human performance. WHOOP empowers users to perform at a higher level through a deeper understanding of their bodies and daily lives.
WHOOP is seeking a Senior, Staff, or Principal level Android Engineer capable of owning the planning, design, development, validation, and maintenance of new features while also providing mentorship of Junior, Mid, and Senior level team members.
The WHOOP Android app is consumer facing and provides users with analysis of their physiological data while also continuously streaming from our proprietary Bluetooth peripheral all day, every day. This means the app is not only responsible for the transport of large amounts of data between the peripheral and our backend server, but also requires complex views, visualizations, and interfaces to give the user insights in near-real time.
Requirements:
6+ years of experience in building, testing and debugging Android apps
Experience building custom Android applications, UIs, and controls with an eye for best practices
Knowledge of OS level interfaces (Android 4.4 and newer)
Experience communicating with a RESTful backend
Thorough knowledge of Computer Science (ie. OOP, algorithms and data structures)
Awesome portfolio of interesting technologies and complex mobile applications
Deep knowledge and genuine interest in mobile technologies
Desirable:
Previous experience with Android Bluetooth and Bluetooth Low Energy
Experience with Kotlin
Experience working with Material Design
Experience working with RxAndroid
Passion for data, analytics, visualizations, and UX
Working knowledge of git
