Description

TransferWise is one the fastest growing companies in Europe and we’re on a mission: to make money without borders the new normal. We’ve got 8 million customers across the globe and we’re growing. Fast.

Current banking systems don't let us send, spend or receive money across borders easily. Or quickly. Or cheaply.

So, we’re building a new one.

And, we’re looking for a talented Android developer to join our mission and help provide our customers with the best mobile experience possible.

What does it take?

A passion for technology, product and user experience

Familiarity with Continuous Delivery approach

The ability to work independently and plan your own solutions to problems

Thinking from the customer perspective and putting them at the heart of everything you do

Is that you?

Great communication skills and the ability to articulate complex, technical concepts to non-technical audience
Experience building Android apps that delight users
Full-stack Android development (Activities, Fragments, Views, Services, Broadcast Receivers, Content Providers, SQLite, etc.)
Experience with Android libraries (such as Android ViewModels, Room DB, RxJava, Kotlin Flows, Android Navigation, Dagger DI, Gson, Kotlin X, Retrofit etc.)
The desire for creating clean, testable code
Practical experience of SOLID principles and when and how to apply them
Experience working with a version control system like git
Strong understanding of REST API Design

…but don’t worry we don’t expect you to know everything!

What the first six months in this role will look like:

You’ll have onboarded and found your place through understanding your team and guild vision and how you can contribute
Understanding the Fintech domain and our tech culture
You’ll have fully developed new features, from planning to release, and keep monitoring their adoption once live
Gone through two quarterly plannings and proposed ideas to take your product further
