The Staff Engineer (Android) is the senior technical authority for Android engineering at Admiral, responsible for defining platform strategy, architecture, and technical standards that enable scalable, reliable, and high-quality mobile experiences. Operating as a hands-on senior individual contributor, this role delivers enterprise-level impact by shaping technical direction, influencing cross-functional stakeholders, mentoring engineers, and solving the organisation’s most complex mobile challenges.

  • Influence platform-wide consistency across Admiral
  • Act as a technical leader and mentor to Android and mobile engineers
  • Provide technical guidance, reviews, and coaching without formal line management
  • Influence Product, Design, Backend, and Leadership teams through expertise and trust
  • Represent Android engineering in senior technical forums and cross-domain initiatives
  • Stay at the forefront of Android and mobile technology trends
  • Evaluate emerging tools and frameworks (e.g. Jetpack Compose, Kotlin Multiplatform)
  • Propose and lead innovation initiatives that improve customer experience, developer productivity, or platform resilience
  • Contribute to Admiral Pioneer communities of practice and knowledge sharing

Requirements:

  • Strong architectural expertise (Clean Architecture, modularisation, MVVM/MVI)
  • Advanced understanding of mobile performance, security, and reliability
  • Ability to influence senior stakeholders and make strategic technical decisions
  • Comfortable operating in ambiguity with minimal direction

Nice to have:

  • Experience in insurance, fintech, mobility, or other regulated industries
  • Exposure to Kotlin Multiplatform, platform unification, or shared-domain architectures
  • Experience contributing to cross-organisation technical strategies
  • Public technical contributions (open source, talks, internal frameworks)
What we offer:
  • up to £3,600 of free shares each year after one year of service
  • 33 days holiday (including bank holidays) when joining, increasing up to a maximum of 38 days (including bank holidays)
