As an Android Mobile Engineer, you will own the development lifecycle, scalability, and "developer experience" of our core native Android application. You will bridge the gap between feature development (building well-tested, high-quality code) and Operations (ensuring 99.9% uptime, performance, and compliance across a massive customer and device base). Your goal is to treat our mobile application and its delivery pipelines as a product: ensuring it is easy to consume via modern, clean architecture, inherently secure, and integrated seamlessly with critical platforms like Omnissa.
Job Responsibility
Contribute to the "Golden Path" for Android application development
Decide when to deprecate older frameworks and how to transition teams to modern, idiomatic Android development
Partner with Mobile Apps Development teams to ensure the mobile development environment (SDKs, build systems, dependency management) is "consumable" via Woolworths’ automation tooling
Own Azure CI/CD pipelines that handle automated builds, comprehensive testing, code signing, and deployment orchestration to the Google Play Store and internal channels
Translate complex regulatory requirements and security best practices (e.g. data encryption) into actionable engineering backlogs for automated remediation
Use Woolworths current reporting & monitoring tools (e.g., Splunk) to derive product insights
Identify "noisy" segments of the mobile platform and prioritise engineering fixes to reduce operational "toil" (crashes, performance regressions)
Requirements
7+ years in Software Engineering, with at least 2–3 years in a Mobile Product Environment role focusing on native Android platforms or mobile delivery platforms
Degree in Computing Science or equivalent
Certifications such as Associate Android Developer or Professional Google Cloud DevOps Engineer are a significant plus
Deep knowledge of the Android SDK
Hands-on experience integrating mobile applications with core enterprise platforms like Omnissa, including API consumption, authentication, and data synchronization
Proven experience moving teams from manual processes ("click-ops") to code-based builds and deployments using mobile CI/CD frameworks (like Azure pipelines)
Experience balancing the conflicting needs of App Devs (who want speed) and Security/Ops (who want stability)
Ability to use telemetry to justify platform investments
Proficiency in JIRA to manage sprints, feature requests, and technical debt
Experience with DevSecOps—integrating vulnerability scanning (e.g., static analysis) and policy-as-code into the deployment pipeline so that security is "invisible" to the end user
Nice to have
A "consultant" mindset
Certifications such as Associate Android Developer or Professional Google Cloud DevOps Engineer are a significant plus
