Job description

This role is offered on an Italian employment contract. Candidates must be based in Italy as we are unable to support remote working from outside the country due to local employment and tax legislation.

As a Senior Android Engineer, you will work end-to-end on user-facing features — from translating designs into production code to optimising performance across a wide range of devices and screen sizes. You will help shape the Android side of the platform, contribute to architectural decisions, and coordinate Android engineers across regions.

Responsibilities

• Develop new user-facing features for Android using Kotlin and Java
• Build reusable components and libraries for future use across the platform
• Translate designs and wireframes into high-quality production code
• Optimise components for performance across mobiles, tablets, and connected TVs
• Analyse and simplify complex requirements to ensure efficient implementation; flag potential technical challenges to stakeholders early
• Coordinate the work of Android engineers across regions and contribute to engineering standards and best practice

Requirements

You produce work that others can build on. You take ownership of features from design to production, and you write code that holds up under real-world device and performance variability. You are credible on architectural decisions because you have made them before and seen them play out.

Required

• 5+ years' relevant engineering experience, including a minimum of 2 years at Senior Android Engineer level
• Deep proficiency in Kotlin, with working command of Java
• Familiarity with Jetpack Compose
• Thorough understanding of the Android SDK and system framework APIs
• Experience with reactive programming using RxJava and its core principles
• Demonstrated unit-testing practice with JUnit and Mockito
• Solid grasp of mobile architectural patterns (MVC, MVVM, delegation, and similar)
• Familiarity with Google Play Services, Play Store account administration, and submission
• Knowledge of mobile debugging and optimisation techniques
• Comfortable with Git, build automation, and modern CI/CD practice
• Fluent written and spoken English
• Experience working with a global team or employer
• Experience with video playback in mobile or web applications; familiarity with video production, audio/video encoding, and transmuxing
• Experience creating frameworks or libraries embedded in other apps
• Basic knowledge of iOS or web programming platforms — useful for cross-platform context
• Knowledge of, or interest in, cricket — useful for editorial judgement on what the audience values

Who Thrives Here

Across both levels, we look for people who bring rigour and curiosity to their work in equal measure. You take quality seriously — not as a constraint, but as a standard you set for yourself. You communicate clearly, flag issues early, and treat your colleagues' time and context with respect. You are honest about what you know and what you are still learning.

This is an environment that rewards initiative. If you are looking for genuinely interesting work on a technically demanding platform, alongside people who hold themselves to a high standard, this may be exactly right.

Process and what to expect

Salary starts from of €30,000 at entry level rising to €90,000 for those with significant relevant experience. Where you land depends on your experience, technical background, and the stack you bring. If your expectations sit outside the range, tell us anyway —we're happy to have an open conversation. Internal progression is assessed through a structured process combining a technical assessment and a competency-based interview. The role falls under CCNL Commercio| D.Lgs. 96/2026.

Process and what to expect

• Introductory conversation: a step for us to get to know each other better, and for us to answer all questions you might have around Deltatre.
• Take-home assessment: a practical exercise you complete in your own time, designed to show us how you approach a real engineering problem. We will use it as the basis for the technical conversation.
• 1-hour Technical round of Interview: we will deep dive on your experience and on the take-home assessment, and explore the technical decisions you have made in your past work.
• 1-hour Competency Based Interview: we will ask you situational questions around how you deal with real-life scenarios at work. Easier doing it, more than explaining it.

If any of these formats would be difficult for you, tell us — we adjust regularly and can usually accommodate.

Accessibility and accommodation questions are welcome at any stage. Tell us what would work for you.
