in our
Stockholm
office – are you ready to hit play on an exciting career change?
The role
As a Principal Android Engineer, you will drive the technical vision and strategy for our Android platform, ensuring we build scalable, maintainable, and high-performing solutions.
Your time will be split between hands-on development within a cross-functional team and strategic leadership. You'll collaborate closely with the Android guild and other platform guilds to ensure best practices and long-term goals.
This Role Combines Technical Depth And Leadership Impact
- Contribute to key architectural decisions
- Mentor and support engineers across teams
- Shape how we develop, deploy, and maintain our Android platform to deliver a seamless experience for millions of users
What You'll Do
- Define the technical roadmap and lead the technical strategy for our Android platform
- Align teams across the organization on architecture, frameworks, and tooling
- Write and review code, contributing to both feature development and platform-wide improvements
- Drive best practices, reduce technical debt, and improve maintainability
- Mentor engineers and foster a culture of learning and collaboration
- Work closely with Principal Engineers, Guild Leads, Product Managers, and stakeholders to ensure alignment on priorities
What we're looking for
We're looking for an experienced Android Engineer who combines deep technical expertise with strong leadership qualities.
You have a passion for guiding teams, shaping strategy, and driving a shared vision. You excel at aligning people toward common goals while staying hands-on with technology.
We understand you may feel confident ticking certain boxes more than others and that's why we always keep an open mind in our recruitment process. But, in order to thrive in this role, we do believe you'll have at least some experience in the following:
- Extensive experience developing customer-focused products
- Deep expertise in modern Android technologies
- Technical leadership experience, setting direction and enacting change
- Ability to align teams and create a shared technical vision beyond the Android platform
- Experience mentoring and coaching engineers
- Solid understanding of CI/CD pipelines, testing strategies, and DevOps practices
It's a bonus if you have:
- Experience working with video streaming platforms
- Experience working with Android TV
- Experience with AI coding tools and agentic frameworks
- A can-do attitude, sense of humor and the ability to work humbly with others.
What we offer you
- We've got you covered 30 days of paid vacation every year, an attractive pension and insurance scheme, and generous parental leave pay lift.
- Your wellbeing matters. We provide you with various wellbeing initiatives including wellness allowance.
- Flexibility that works. We follow a hybrid model with at least three days a week in the office, giving you the best mix of collaboration and focus time.
- A safe space to grow and up-skill. Our learning culture puts you in the driver's seat of your own development.
- An innovative environment with Hack Days once a year. This week-long initiative allows you to think outside the box and deliver creative, technical solutions that (more often than not) go on to be implemented, either in our product or our ways of working.
- Entertainment is what we love, and entertainment is what we do. So, unlimited access to Viaplay seems only fair for you to get to know the product – including series & viewing events, new release movie rentals, linear channels and more.
