Role Overview

We are seeking a highly skilled Software Engineer with deep experience in Android application development with preference to custom hardware platforms. The ideal candidate is not only a strong individual contributor but also an advocate and mentor for AI-assisted software development, particularly with tools like GitHub Copilot or similar LLM-based coding accelerators. This individual will work within our existing engineering team to deliver high-quality features efficiently while promoting best practices in AI- enabled development workflows.

Core Responsibilities

  • Develop, maintain, and optimize Android applications running on custom embedded hardware.
  • Collaborate with internal engineering teams to design, review, and implement high- quality software solutions.
  • Leverage AI coding tools (e.g., GitHub Copilot, Gemini) to accelerate development, improve code quality, and reduce cycle time.
  • Act as an AI development evangelist—coach team members on effective AI tool usage, prompt engineering, and integration into daily workflows.
  • Identify opportunities where AI-assisted tooling can streamline processes (coding, testing, documentation, code review).
  • Participate in code reviews, architecture discussions, and troubleshooting sessions with the team.
  • Provide clear communication, documentation, and knowledge transfer to internal teams throughout the engagement.

Proven ability to use AI tools to:

  • Generate code efficiently
  • Improve test coverage
  • Refactor or document code

Assist in debugging and root-cause analysis

  • Experience integrating with hardware interfaces, sensors, networking, or media pipelines is a plus.
  • Strong Git experience and comfort working in large, shared codebases.
