Now, over 150,000 customers across four countries choose to transact billions with us every year. But we’re just getting started. Our people are the driving force behind our success. They are our greatest investment and our ultimate competitive advantage. We hire exceptional people and give them the autonomy, trust, and ownership to thrive. The results take care of themselves.

The Role

As a Senior Android Engineer at Dojo, working on our brand new merchant app, you’ll be at the forefront of creating something from the ground up, shaping how business owners interact with Dojo every day.

We’re after a product-focused engineer who takes real ownership of their work - someone who’s confident sharing thoughtful, data-backed opinions, communicates clearly with both technical and non-technical teams, values feedback, and isn’t afraid to commit when a decision’s been made.

You’ll be working in a mobile team but partnering closely with designers, backend engineers, product managers, and stakeholders across Dojo, helping us define how and what we build.

Come help us shape the next generation of merchant tools and have a real impact from day one.

What You Will Do

• Solve customer pains in a data-driven manner, crafting features in collaboration with other engineers and product managers in multi-disciplinary squads.
• Contribute significantly to the development of our new app product for merchants
• Own your code and features end to end.
• Participate in an environment where problems can be shared, understood and resolved, always keeping the customer at the heart of decision-making.
• Collaborate with both your multi-disciplinary squad and the wider Android engineering chapter.

What You Will Bring

• Strong knowledge of Kotlin and the Android Framework (Android Jetpack Compose).
• Product-focused mindset, making data-informed decisions.
• Knowledge of reactive programming (Coroutines, RXjava).
• Experience with Dependency injection & Jetpack Libraries advantageous.
• Knowledge of architecture patterns (MVVM, Observable patterns, Clean Architecture).
• Knowledge of CI (Bitrise) is a plus.
• Unit/UI testing best practice understanding (Mockito, Mockk, Robolectric, JUnit etc).

Dojo home and away

We believe our best work happens when we collaborate in-person. These “together days” foster communication, drive innovation and spark our brightest ideas. That's why we have an office-first culture. This means working from the office 4+ days per week.

With offices across Europe, we know a thing or two about staying dynamic. Need deep focus? Head to a quiet zone. Big ideas? Collaboration spaces have you covered. Just here for a catch-up? Our social hubs make it easy. Do work that counts, in spaces made for you.
