At WHOOP, we're on a mission to unlock human performance. WHOOP empowers users
to perform at a higher level through a deeper understanding of their bodies
and daily lives.
As a Senior Android Engineer at WHOOP, you will be involved in the planning,
design, development, validation, and maintenance of features. The WHOOP app
provides users with lots of data analysis while also continuously streaming
data from our proprietary Bluetooth peripheral all day every day. This means
the app is not only responsible for the transport of large amounts of data
between the peripheral and our backend server, but also requires complex
views, visualizations, and interfaces to give the user insights into the data
in near-real time. The combination of these requirements presents an
interesting set of challenges unique to the WHOOP system.

-2+ years of experience in building, testing and debugging Android apps
-Experience building custom Android applications, UIs, and controls with an eye for best practices
-Knowledge of OS level interfaces (Android 4.4 and newer)
-Experience communicating with a RESTful backend
-Thorough knowledge of Computer Science (ie. OOP, algorithms and data structures)
-Awesome portfolio of interesting technologies and complex mobile applications
-Deep knowledge and genuine interest in mobile technologies
Desirable:
-Previous experience with Android Bluetooth and Bluetooth Low Energy
-Experience with Kotlin
