At Brilliant, we are on a mission to turn the world into a community of better problem solvers. We believe that learning should be an active, engaging experience, which is why we have moved away from passive videos to create interactive games for math, science, computer science, and data analysis. Our platform serves hundreds of thousands of subscribers who learn by doing, experimenting, and building intuition. We are a team of optimists who value excellence, candor, and adventure, and we are looking for someone who shares our passion for creating meaningful, high-impact educational experiences.
The opportunity
We are looking for a Senior Mobile Engineer to join our elite, small team of product-minded builders. In this role, you will be instrumental in shaping the future of interactive education. While your primary focus will be on our Android platform using Kotlin and Jetpack Compose, you will have the opportunity to work across our stack, including iOS and web, whenever it serves the best outcome for our learners. You will work closely with design, data, and product teams to bring features from initial concept to final polish, ensuring that our tools remain intuitive and effective for everyone.
A day in the life
- Collaborate with cross-functional partners to shepherd new features from early design stages through to successful launch, ensuring a seamless experience on mobile devices.
- Balance technical excellence with business goals by writing clean, maintainable code that prioritizes the user experience while keeping our development velocity high.
- Actively mentor teammates and advocate for improvements to our engineering processes, always asking how our technical decisions directly impact the students using our platform.
Who you are
You are a seasoned engineer with at least 5 years of professional experience who is motivated by solving real-world problems for users. You value simplicity in your code, preferring solutions that are easy to understand and build upon rather than overly complex or clever workarounds. You are comfortable working in a collaborative environment where pair programming and knowledge sharing are the norms. You have deep expertise in your preferred languages and frameworks, yet you remain curious about new technologies and are eager to explore how AI can enhance your productivity. You communicate clearly in English and are excited to contribute to a culture of mutual accountability and high standards.
Why you'll love it here
We are committed to building a sustainable, healthy business, and we offer a supportive environment where you can do the best work of your career. Our benefits package is designed to take care of you and your family, including:
- Remote work flexibility with a home office budget to ensure you have the setup you need.
- Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance with 100% of premiums covered.
- Flexible hours and a generous PTO policy, with a team norm of taking about 6 weeks off per year.
- Dedicated funds for professional development to help you continue growing your skills.
