We’re looking for a Senior Android Engineer on OpenAI’s Applied team to build the core mobile experiences that power how users sign up, manage their account, use family features, pay for services, stay safe, and interact with OpenAI’s products with confidence. This role is about building high-quality products and reusable Android foundations that product teams across OpenAI apps depend on to ship quickly while meeting the highest standards for security, reliability, privacy, and user trust.
Job Responsibility:
Build and ship monetization experiences on Android (e.g., plan selection, purchase flows, subscription management, entitlements, and policy-aware UX patterns)
Design and maintain shared Android frameworks and primitives for account, trust, and commerce flows used across OpenAI’s mobile apps
Own complex Android systems end-to-end across UI architecture, networking, local persistence/state, observability, and release processes
Build robust integrations with Android platform and ecosystem components
Optimize performance, reliability, and responsiveness at global scale
Establish and evolve testing and quality systems
Collaborate with Product, Design, Research, backend, and Safety to deliver features
Provide technical leadership through architecture reviews, mentoring, and setting engineering standards
Requirements:
4+ years of professional software engineering experience with meaningful Android ownership
Track record of building and shipping high-quality Android applications in production (especially for reliability- and trust-sensitive flows like identity and payments)
Fluent in Kotlin
Comfortable with Android tooling and architecture (Gradle, Android Studio, modern app architecture patterns, Jetpack Compose)
Enjoy making pragmatic architectural tradeoffs while keeping systems maintainable, testable, and scalable
Care deeply about performance, security, privacy, and user experience
Thrive in 0→1 environments where systems, architecture, and user experiences must be defined from scratch
