Job description

Are you passionate about building and securing Android at the platform level rather than developing mobile applications? We're looking for an experienced Security Android Engineer to join a team working on next-generation Android Automotive platforms.

Why This Role?

This isn't an Android application development role. It's an opportunity to work on the Android operating system itself, solving security problems that impact millions of connected devices and future automotive platforms.

If you're passionate about Android platform engineering and want to work on challenging security problems at the system level, we'd love to hear from you.

Best, Shaun
