Role summary

Seeking an L5B Senior Android Engineer to lead the development of earner-facing Android experiences for fleets within the Fleets & Vehicle organization. This role focuses on building best-in-class Android applications for couriers, mobility/taxi drivers, and AV fleet operators. You will translate the FleetHub vision into intuitive workflows for understanding shifts, zones, earnings, and performance. As the senior IC and Android technical lead, you will set standards for architecture, code quality, and user experience, driving design and influencing cross-functional partners. Experience with Kotlin/Java, complex mobile architectures, and leading technical direction is required.

About the Role
We are looking for an L5B Senior Android Engineer to lead earner-facing Android experiences for fleets within the Fleets & Vehicle org. This role is focused on:

  • Building best-in-class Android experiences for earners who operate as part of fleets - couriers, mobility/taxi drivers, and AV fleet operators.
  • Translating the FleetHub / Fleet Foundations / Fleet Intelligence vision into intuitive Android workflows that help fleet earners understand shifts, zones, earnings, and performance, and collaborate effectively with fleet managers and operations teams.
  • Designing and implementing bespoke, fleet-specific workflows on Android while leveraging common platform components so Courier Fleets, Mobility Fleets, and AV Fleets can all build on the same foundations.

You will be the senior IC and Android technical lead for this space, setting the standard for architecture, code quality, and user experience across the fleet earner surfaces you own.
What you will do
Lead Android experiences across heterogeneous fleets

- Own the design and implementation of Android features that support courier, mobility/taxi, and AV fleet earners - from onboarding through daily operations and performance management.
Build configurable Android flows that can be tailored to different fleet archetypes while sharing common components (navigation, data models, analytics, access control).

Bring the FleetHub operating model to life on Android

  • Implement Android workflows that sit on top of Fleet Foundations (fleet data, orgs, RBAC, contracts/payments, reporting) and Fleet Management Core Modules (onboarding, performance, incentives, command center, earnings).
  • Surface Fleet Intelligence capabilities in the earner experience, such as demand-aware shift planning and positioning recommendations for fleet earners and managers.

Concretely, you will help build Android experiences for:

  • Courier Fleets: recruitment & onboarding, shift & break management, zone management & positioning, depot / field support workflows.
  • Mobility & Taxi Fleets: driver onboarding, shift & break management, airport/curbside flows, fleet-managed incentives and earnings visibility.
  • AV Fleets: bespoke workflows that connect fleet earners and operators with AV tooling (e.g., command center views, vehicle state awareness, depot/field support collaboration), built on top of shared fleet and vehicle platforms.

Basic Qualifications

- BS/MS in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field, or equivalent practical experience.
- 9+ years of professional software engineering experience, with substantial time building and shipping Android applications at scale.
- Expertise in Kotlin and/or Java and deep understanding of the Android platform, frameworks, and tooling.
- Experience designing and implementing complex mobile architectures (modularization, clean architecture, reactive patterns), with strong focus on performance, reliability, and offline support.
- Demonstrated ability to lead technical direction within a product area: driving design, making trade-offs, and influencing cross-functional partners across time zones.
Strong communication skills and comfort working closely with product, design, backend, data, operations, and AV partner teams.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience building platformized mobile surfaces where multiple vertical teams own modules and contribute to a shared foundation.
  • Passion for engineering excellence and reliability in mission-critical workflows used daily by fleet earners and operators.
