As a senior software engineer, you are a core team member on whom the team relies to consistently deliver high quality solutions. You take
ownership to help the team reach their goals, including actively sharing knowledge and providing feedback. You can identify and initiate activities to address improvement areas within the team. With a mature view on technical governance you have a long term perspective of the team's components
and applications.

Technical Excellence & Architecture

• Lead the design and implementation of complex Android features and shared modules across multiple brands.
• Drive architectural decisions, ensuring modularity, scalability, and maintainability of the Android codebase.
• Evolve and refine our use of Kotlin, Jetpack Compose, Coroutines / Flow, and modern Android development patterns.
• Partner with architects and senior engineers across domains to shape long-term technical direction.

Ownership Across the Lifecycle

• Fully own features end-to-end: design, development, testing, deployment, monitoring, and iteration.
• Proactively identify performance, stability, and architectural improvements, and drive initiatives to address them.
• Lead incident resolution for Android-related issues, guiding root-cause analysis and long-term fixes.

Quality & Testing Leadership

• Advocate and implement advanced testing strategies: Unit, UI, integration, and performance tests.
• Collaborate with QA automation engineers to evolve shared frameworks and CI/CD quality gates.
• Ensure testing, observability, and monitoring are first-class citizens in the development process.

Collaboration, Mentoring & Influence

• Coach mid-level and junior engineers through code reviews, pairing sessions, and technical design discussions.
• Work closely with Product Owners and designers to influence requirements, scope, and user experience early on.
• Act as a strong voice in improving team workflows, processes, and engineering best practices.
