Cars.com helps tens of millions of people like you and me find their perfect car match each year, with our 4.7 star rated Android app being a critical part of our strategy. We're looking for an Android engineer with 5+ years of experience to serve as a tech lead for our Android engineering team.

Your sphere of influence doesn't stop there. You will personally be able to make your mark on how our Android engineering organization evolves from a technical perspective. Passionate and opinionated about things like new and emerging technologies, automation, and experimentation? You'll be able to help define the what and the how around Android engineering for our organization, and with that, be able to shape how millions of people shop for their next car on Android.
