Who We Are

We’re looking to grow our Poatek offices in Brazil with top talent excited to collaborate with team members across the globe to deliver innovative solutions for our clients.

Location and Flexibility

This is a hybrid role, which we’ve termed Work from Near (WFN). This model requires the ability to work on-site from our São Paulo - SP or Porto - RS office throughout the week based on team needs, while still providing the flexibility to work remotely on other days. Our WFN culture is designed to foster in-person innovation, collaboration, and connection with team members local and visiting from other global offices.

As a Senior Staff-Level Android Engineer, you will be at the forefront of our dynamic team, leading the design of applications, tools, and processes while ensuring value, clarity, and maintainability.

Furthermore, you are expected to tackle psychological safety impediments and mentor team members, fostering a conducive work environment across the entire build cycle.

Responsibilities

• Champion the adoption and implementation of new practices for project teams and clients, while using IDE’s, version control like Git, and command line tools effectively.

Additional Responsibilities

On-Call Support: This role includes periodic on-call duties to support our critical systems. Aligned with our commitment to work-life balance, we maintain a strict 10-hour daily work limit, even during on-call periods. Team members may be required to respond to issues outside of regular business hours on a rotational basis. Compensation for on-call duty is provided in accordance with Brazilian labor laws.

Qualifications

• Proven experience (10+ years) as an Android Engineer, with a track record of leading complex projects.
• Expert knowledge in implementing world-class engineering practices.
• Deep understanding of client tech stacks and the ability to integrate and improve them over a series of projects.
• Demonstrated ability to plan and execute large-scale refactors across the software ecosystem.
• Strong understanding of the Android development Lifecycle and ecosystem including languages, frameworks, and libraries (Java, Kotlin, Room, Coroutines/Flow, RxJava, Dagger 2, Gradle, Fragments, OkHttp3, Retrofit or Volley).
• Comfort with IDE’s, version control systems such as Git, and command-line tools.
• Familiarity with CI/CD (e.g., Jenkins, CircleCI, Azure, GitHub Actions) and experience setting up deployment pipelines.
• Experience in frequently using frameworks such as Espresso, JUnit, Mockito/Mockk to write automated tests for your code.
• Proven ability to recognize symptoms of various impediments to psychological safety and provide effective support.
