By contributing to features across our Kotlin Spring Boot backend and Android applications, you will play an important role in building a robust, usable, and secure ecosystem: from Rider to Cloud, to Robot.

In this role you will:

• Contribute to the end-to-end engineering design and implementation of product features spanning our mobile applications and Kotlin Spring Boot backend.

• Help shape the future of rider experiences in autonomous vehicle ride-hailing, solving real-world challenges through fullstack ownership.

Qualifications

• 3+ years of relevant experience, with a BS / MS in Computer Science or a related field.
• Strong proficiency in Kotlin, with solid hands-on experience in modern Android development (Jetpack Compose, MVVM architecture).
• Demonstrated experience developing and maintaining backend services, particularly with Spring Boot.
• Proven ability to contribute to and maintain production-grade full-stack applications, including proficiency with RESTful APIs and streaming technologies such as WebSockets.
• Experience working cross-functionally with engineering, product, and design teams to drive features from concept to launch.

Bonus Qualifications

• Prior experience contributing to both mobile and backend codebases, even outside a formal full-stack role.
• Familiarity with Kotlin Multiplatform (KMP) to share business logic between mobile clients.
• Effective at leveraging agentic AI development tools to accelerate workflows.
