Software Engineer, Android
At Zoox, we're not just building self-driving cars; we're creating an autonomous ride-hailing service that will revolutionize how people move.
We are looking for a Software Engineer to join our Mobile Applications Engineering team. In this role, you will help build and scale our Android application, contributing to product features that directly shape the future of Zoox’s rider experience. You will work closely with senior engineers to establish robust, usable, and secure interfaces that connect our riders to our autonomous fleet.
We're designing and building everything from the ground up — the vehicle, the software, and the systems that keep it all running safely at scale. If you want to work on hard problems that matter, Zoox is where that happens.
-
Contribute to the engineering design and implementation of product features for our Android mobile application.
-
Develop scalable, high-performance Android components using modern technologies and frameworks.
-
Collaborate closely with other engineering teams across Zoox’s client, cloud, and vehicle stack to design innovative, end-to-end solutions.
-
Partner with design and product teams to create intuitive, efficient, and seamless rider experiences, ensuring smooth data flow from the server to the user interface.
-
Iterate on rider-facing features to solve real-world challenges in autonomous vehicle ride-hailing.
-
1+ years of relevant experience, with a BS / MS in Computer Science or a related field.
-
Deep expertise as a Kotlin Specialist, with strong proficiency in modern Android development (Jetpack Compose, MVVM architecture).
-
Experience working with RESTful APIs and basic understanding of networking protocols.
-
Experience working cross-functionally with engineering, product, and design teams to drive features from concept to launch.
-
Experience working with Kotlin Multiplatform (KMP) to share business logic between mobile clients.
-
Effective at leveraging agentic AI development tools to accelerate workflows.
