Our client, a stealth-mode startup backed by leading investors, is redefining human-computer interaction through next-gen wearable tech. Your mission? To blend robotics, AR, and advanced data systems into a seamless user experience. We're looking for a Senior Android Developer with deep C expertise to take ownership of their Android app and bring their Spatial SDK-powered headset into a production-ready state.


What You'll Do:

  • Own and evolve the Android app that powers a next-gen AR/robotics headset.
  • Work directly with the Spatial SDK (recently launched by Meta) and push the boundaries of what's possible in Android AR experiences.
  • Lead development of low-level recording and instruction features used in data collection workflows.
  • Build with C at the core, using Android NDK, JNI, and native app components.
  • Optimize performance and stability across a variety of Android hardware and custom wearable form factors.
  • Collaborate closely with robotics, hardware, and AI teams to create a highly integrated system.
  • Lay groundwork for future enhancements, including Unity-based experiences (nice-to-have for future roadmap).

What You'll Bring:

  • 4+ years of experience developing consumer-grade Android apps, ideally with a focus on performance, stability, and native integrations.
  • Expert-level C , particularly in Android environments-NDK, JNI, and native rendering or hardware integration.
  • Strong background in Android Native Development and Android system-level programming.
  • Hands-on experience with Java and Kotlin (used alongside native components).
  • Bonus: Exposure to Android 3D/AR applications or even Android game development.
  • Extra Bonus: Unity, Spatial SDK, or familiarity with AR frameworks.

Why Join?

  • Build the Foundation: Help shape a truly innovative hardware/software platform from the ground up.
  • Massive Impact: Your work will directly power real-world AR experiences and robotic interfaces.
  • Growth Trajectory: Ground-floor opportunity with meaningful equity (0.4-1%) in a hardware + AI company.
  • Real Problems, Real Users: Contribute to solving complex, interdisciplinary challenges with immediate impact.
  • Creative Culture: Collaborative, scrappy, and highly technical environment
