Role
Who you are
- Experience or knowledge of Kotlin, Jetpack, Compose, RxJava, GraphQL, Retrofit, Dagger, Junit4, Mockito/AssertJ, Espresso, and GitHub for SCM, CI/CD, Kanban, Jira / Confluence, Firebase / Google Analytics / Google Tag Manager, MVI, Clean Architecture, TDD, Pair Programming
- We don’t expect you to have experience with all of the technologies above!
- What sets this opportunity apart is that we're not looking for prior experience; instead, we're seeking someone who possesses an insatiable curiosity and a genuine passion for learning.
What the job involves
- We are looking for someone to join one of our dynamic teams as an Associate Android Engineer and embark on a journey of innovation and creativity
- In this role, you'll be an integral part of a collaborative team dedicated to enhancing the customisation features of our products, which range from personalised greeting cards to heartwarming gifts that bring joy to loved ones
- Good engineering comes first: First and foremost, we are always striving for good engineering and this is so much more than just writing good, clean code. It’s a way of thinking about your code, domain, peers, supporting processes and the entire ecosystem in which you operate. You should be learning how this all fits together and focusing on your contribution towards it
- Focus on delivery: Delivery is fundamental to great engineering, it’s why we write software after all. You will build up a solid understanding of what good delivery looks like, how to work in high performing teams, what makes good team dynamics and how the collective process contributes towards fast, incremental delivery
- Learn and grow: You will be continuously growing your engineering skills and ensuring you are surrounding yourself with people that can help you do this. Understand the core differences between coding, craft and architecture and how they are applied at scale
- You are evolving to a world in which you are responsible for part of the technical estate, so make sure you are growing to take on this challenge with confidence
Salary benchmarks
Our take
When Moonpig was founded in 2000, it bought into the idea that a personalised gift is always more meaningful, whether sent from the sofa, the commute, or the gym. Customers quickly bought into this vision, and Moonpig saw rapid growth culminating in its 2011 acquisition by Photobox for £120M.
Since then, Moonpig has seen continued success. Through expansion into new products such as flowers (Moonpig is now a top-3 online flower seller) and the development of its own app, Moonpig has established its place within the market for personalised gifts.
And it doesn't plan on slowing down anytime soon, as it looks to expand even further. Recent innovations have included the introduction of giant cards, and the company has also secured the ability to create exclusively branded ranges alongside Disney and Warner Bros. This commitment to innovation positions Moonpig to capture even more market share and strengthen its leadership in the industry.
