Job summary

Speechify is seeking a Team Lead to own core Android product work and to raise how the team collaborates around it. This is a hands-on role with coding, reviews, and ownership of features from conception to release.

You will guide reliability metrics, mentor juniors, and drive efficient collaboration with Product, Design, and Engineering while maintaining high-quality Android UI/UX and performance.

Qualifications

• 5+ years of software engineering experience, including time leading a team or owning a major surface while staying hands-on.
• Rock solid Kotlin, Kotlin Coroutines, Kotlin Flow, Dagger 2, MVVM, Clean Architecture, Background Services, Music Player Service, Android animations, Jetpack Navigation, and JUnit tests.
• Experience shipping and maintaining background audio or other long-running background work.
• Understanding of the importance of tests and how to approach writing them, including what can't be covered by them.
• Something you introduced to a team that stuck after you stopped pushing it, and an honest account of what it cost to get there.

Responsibilities

• Own major features end to end, working closely with our design team — from the decision through to release.
• Own, maintain, and improve reliability metrics for key features.
• Review pull requests and give meaningful feedback, not just approval.
• Unblock the team when someone is stuck and take a look yourself.
• Keep shared pieces in working order — tested and clear for others to pick up.
