Android Developer

About the role

We're hiring a Junior Android Developer to help build the mobile experience for collectors to use every day from managing their collections, connecting with the community, and opening Instapacks. You'll work closely with the CTO and engineering team to ship features across our Android app.

Responsibilities

• Build and improve Android features across Rare Candy's collector-facing product.
• Fix bugs, improve polish, and raise the quality bar for the Android app.
• Work closely with product, design, and engineering to turn ideas into shipped experiences.
• Learn quickly, ask good questions, and communicate clearly when something is blocked, unclear, or ready for review.

Requirements

• Around 3 years of Android development experience and have shipped real features in a production app or serious side project.
• Comfortable building with Kotlin and Jetpack Compose.
• Worked with GraphQL, or have enough API experience to ramp quickly.
• Care about product quality, UI polish, and the little details that make an app feel good.
• Early in your career but serious about getting better. You want feedback, mentorship, and real responsibility.
• Comfortable in a fast-moving startup where priorities can shift and the best answer is often “figure it out, then make it better.”
• Know the trading-card or collector world. You collect, play, rip packs, follow the market, or have real fluency in a similar collectible space.

Qualifications

• You'll need to be curious, detail-oriented, and comfortable learning by doing.
• The systems are still evolving, the team is small, and your work will matter immediately.

Skills

• Android development experience.
• Kotlin programming.
• Jetpack Compose.
• GraphQL integration.

Benefits

• Competitive startup compensation, including a salary range of $100,000-$120,000.
• Full benefits: health, dental, and vision coverage, 401(k), and a wellness stipend.
• A monthly dogfooding budget to spend on cards, because we hire people who love this hobby.

Pay

$120,000 - $140,000, competitive startup comp, and meaningful equity upside.

Full-time, remote position.
