Job Description

Kotlin, Java, Compose, Gradle, Dagger, Kotlin Coroutines, RxJava, Retrofit, Android Architecture Components – as a skilled software engineer, you’re experienced in some and curious about the rest. Whatever your technical abilities, you’ll be adept at developing, releasing and maintaining native apps. You’ll base your decisions on metrics and use agile/lean methodologies. You’ll also know that delivery is all about balancing technical, analytical and product needs, and that big tasks need to be broken down. This isn’t just about having great technical talents, though. We’re also looking for a sense of team spirit, dedication to customers and accountability for your own projects.

As a Mobile Engineer, you’ll work on native app development. It’s all about building and shipping features from the ground up. You’ll be accountable for designing, building and running your features in production, that means system design, monitoring how it’s being used, and making data driven decisions on how to evolve features. You’ll have a varied role with plenty of learning opportunities. Right now, we’re building some world-leading tooling, with deploy pipelines out of the box, pioneering experimentation tools, and an amazing inter-team collaboration set-up. Though you’ll be accountable for your own projects and trusted to deliver, you’ll also form part of a broader team that takes collective responsibility for making success happen.

Skyscanner’s unwavering commitment to our travellers and partners remains as strong as ever. We are on a mission to make travel more sustainable and straightforward, and we’ll need your expertise to help all the new considerations of an ever evolving industry.

Skyscanner is a hybrid working company and most roles can be either Full Time or Part Time. We believe when people meet regularly in person, we are better able to innovate, learn, collaborate and inspire. We ask people to be in the office on average 8 days per month.

Already a global leader in travel, we want to elevate the way we work to a whole other level. In return, you’ll get meaningful things like medical insurance, headspace subscriptions, a home office allowance and the option to buy more holiday. You’ll have the opportunity to work from any country for 4 weeks a year, and 30 days in our other global offices. Everything, in other words, to help you relax and give your best.
