TeamSnap is seeking a Staff Software Engineer (Android) to lead advertising on our next-generation Android app. You'll set the technical direction for how ads come to life in the app: designing a scalable, privacy-conscious ad platform and building ad experiences that feel native to how families use TeamSnap. Along the way, you'll help shape the architecture of a modern Kotlin and Jetpack Compose app used by millions. We’re looking for critical thinkers who are excited to jump in and make an impact! We're looking for people with big ideas and tiny egos. No matter what your “job” is, you’re welcome to suggest better ways of doing anything. Our team values collaboration in a remote culture, so we regularly participate in pair sessions and virtual team swarms to stay connected and improve the team and company.

What You'll Bring::
