Are you looking for an opportunity to work in a company where progress, and humility are valued as highly as technical excellence? At M-KOPA, we have a team of passionate product-focused engineers committed to building and encouraging an environment where our colleagues feel valued. We encourage knowledge sharing and learning as much as possible.
We are looking for an Android Engineer with Mid to Senior level experience to join our repayments group that sits within the engineering team. The group is made up of 3 agile teams which are focused on Payment flows, Core lending and Loan repayment experience and IoT device control.
As an engineer, you will work with a cross-functional team of android, backend engineers, product managers and testers to design, develop, and maintain M-KOPA’s Customer apps, and deliver software that scales with both company and customer growth.
Additionally, you would be working on a variety of aspects that include deep diving user journeys using data and implementing focused updates to address our customer’s needs; and collaborating with fellow Android engineers to improve application quality and raise coding standards.
Our teams work in a self-organized agile fashion where they keep track of their work in Azure DevOps, which we also use for our CI/CD, Kotlin for our Android apps and .NET for our backend. Our cloud provider is Azure, where our microservices are hosted in Azure Kubernetes Services, and we implement Android applications following clean architecture principles, unidirectional data flow and jetpack compose.
Our roles are fully remote, within the following time zone (UTC -1 / UTC+3). Our engineers work remotely from locations such as UK, Europe and Africa.
If you like taking a product-focused approach to development and driving changes using data to guide your decisions, taking ownership, coupled with a commercial experience in Android and Kotlin then this might just be the job for you.
Our expectation is that you have a background working for a large-scale product and you are familiar with Trunk-based development, Clean Architecture, Dependency Injection, Uni-directional data flow (MVI), Feature Toggles, Docker and Azure DevOps. Additionally, understanding the importance of testing and experience in writing clear and reliable tests as well as being aware of testing best practices is very key for the role.
We are looking for strong experience with Kotlin, Android app development, clean architecture principles, testing, unidirectional data flow and jetpack compose.
