Android Developer – Fintech

Quant Capital is urgently looking for an Android Developer to join our high profile client.

They have recently raised (PE and Bank) £50 million and are set for another £100 million raise in February. They are acquiring users at 50,000 per month and the boards aim is for a £2billion valuation by July 2022.

The organisational structure is flat and open. The client value listening over speaking. We encourage the personal and professional growth of every person in the business. Our people are self-directing, and our teams are self-organising.

Engineers are responsible for ensuring the correctness of their code and the output generated. Therefore, there is a strong emphasis on automated testing and validation.

Periodic retrospectives are the heartbeat of continuous improvement.

Review of designs/code and knowledge sharing are key to smooth organizational continuity. Two brains are always better than one and as such we often pair program.

Day to Day The Android Engineer will:

• Develop the application; writing the code or the application and unit tests.
• Investigate, debug, and resolve customer reported issues.
• Support and enhance the architecture of the Android application.
• Interact with the product manager and designers to refine ideas into fully specified user stories.
• Help to suggest refinements or features for the application to improve the experience for users or increase reliability.
• Break down larger stories to allow features to be developed in an iterative manner and to minimize possible impact.
• Estimate features so we get reliable release dates.
• Release the app when all features are completed and signed off.
• Monitor the app post-release to ensure that it is working as expected.

The Android Developer Must have:

• At least 3 years of commercial experience in Android development.
• Proficient in Kotlin and/or Java
• Experience with common design patterns such as MVP and MVVM
• Experience with financial systems
• Experience creating rich mobile interfaces
• Excellent verbal communication, remote development and solid problem-solving skills.
• BSc/BA/MS/PhD in Computer Science, Engineering or a related field.

The environment is that of Facebook or Google, relaxed open with time to think and make the right decisions. The atmosphere is calm and relaxed with an open dress code. This is a role for technologists, those who are motivated by the sharp end of technology and the possibility of making serious money doing something you are passionate about.

My client is based in Central London, this role is hybrid 1 day a week in the office, potentially 4 per month in bulk.
