You:

  • Are not afraid of jumping into the deep end
  • Are excited about building empowered teams
  • Feel rewarded from seeing others grow as a result of your mentorship
  • Have pulled recyclables out of the trash

We:

  • Believe we do not inherit the earth from our ancestors; we borrow it from our children
  • Work to protect and restore the environment
  • Aren't afraid to make mistakes as long as we learn
  • Care more about your values and intelligence than your experience

  2. Foster CREATIVITY to inspire fresh innovation
  3. Embrace COURAGE by taking action despite uncertainty
  4. Live with Awareness and CONSCIOUSNESS of our choices

About the role: 

We are seeking a highly motivated, collaborative-minded Android Software Engineer who is excited about revolutionizing how we as humans think of waste. Lomi is our answer to the earth's waste problem and was one of Indiegogo’s most successful crowdfunding campaigns. We are already hard at work designing Lomi 2.0, which will be a connected smart Lomi. A connected Lomi will make dealing with waste easier, more fun, and more rewarding for the customer.

As an Android Software Engineer you will be a key contributor to our Mobile Team, specifically developing the Android application for Lomi. You will work in a highly collaborative team of software engineers, firmware engineers, UX designers, product designers, and product managers to bring the vision of Lomi to life. Come help us realize our goal of removing 10 billion pounds of waste from our planet!

Your day-to-day responsibilities will include:

  • Developing new, highly configurable UI components and libraries to power new features of Lomi.
  • Developing new UIs to help customers get the most out of their composting experience with Lomi.
  • Creating beautiful and fast code that improves our code base in meaningful ways.
  • Prototyping new features to collect feedback and iterate towards ideal product solutions.
  • Contributing to the technical direction of new features and systems.

What we are looking for:

  • Hands on experience as a software engineer writing production-grade code for Android (Java, Kotlin) or a modern programming language such as Typescript, C#, C++
  • Knowledgeable of the Android development ecosystem, frameworks, 3rd party libraries
  • Experience with code reviews, pull requests, code repositories, and version control (Git preferable)
  • Curiosity and passion to constantly learn new things. We are creating a new product category, we can’t expect to know everything.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills. You’ll clearly and concisely communicate via JIRA, Google Docs, Github, Slack, and Zoom to name a few.
  • Passion to lead and grow team members in their career and technical knowledge.

Bonus Qualifications:

  • Experience writing native apps in Kotlin
  • Experience using Jetpack Compose
  • Experience interfacing with IoT products

Pela is committed to cultivating and preserving a company culture of diversity, equity, and inclusion. This means we seek out people with a diversity of opinion and with strengths that will be complementary to our existing organization. We know that we will grow and learn better with a diverse team. When recruiting for new members of our team, we welcome the unique contributions that you can bring in terms of your education, culture, ethnicity, race, sex, gender identity and expression, age, religion, and sexual orientation.
