We're building mission-critical systems in a highly regulated domain, and we care deeply about doing it right. If you're motivated by meaningful problems, high standards, and shaping infrastructure that improves financial outcomes, you'll feel at home here.

About the Role

We're looking for a founding Senior Android Engineer to help build the native Android experience for our financial platform. You'll design and deliver secure, high-performance features that help users understand and manage their financial lives, while laying the foundation for a long-term mobile architecture.

  • Expert-level proficiency in Kotlin, with deep experience across modern Android development practices
  • Demonstrated ownership of end-to-end Android features or full applications, from design through release and long-term maintenance
  • Proven ability to design, implement, and evolve Android architectures (MVVM, MVI, Clean Architecture), making thoughtful tradeoffs around scalability, performance, and maintainability
  • Extensive experience with modern Android frameworks and libraries, including Jetpack Compose, AndroidX, Coroutines, and related tooling
  • Deep expertise in secure data handling, including encryption, authentication/authorization flows, key management, and Android platform security best practices
  • Demonstrated ability to diagnose and resolve complex issues related to performance, memory, threading, and real-world device constraints

  • Ability to lead by example, conduct high-quality code reviews, mentor engineers, and help raise the overall technical bar
  • Genuine passion for building high-quality software, with a continuous improvement mindset and curiosity to stay current with Android platform evolution
  • Clear communicator who takes ownership, moves with urgency, and drives work to completion

Why Monstro?

  • Ownership & Impact: Shape the future of AI-powered finance—building a category-defining product used by consumers and institutions around the world.
  • Experienced Team: Join a team with leadership that has a track record of scaling companies from early stage to major exits.
  • Principles-Driven Culture: Work in a culture that values speed, ownership, and impact—what most companies achieve in 90 days, we do in 45.
  • Comprehensive Compensation Package: Competitive salary, equity, and robust benefits package, including paid health, vision, dental, and disability coverage.

Note: This role will be hybrid for those in the NYC metro
Note: This role will have a start date of early to mid July

Base Compensation Range (New York City): $164,000 – $205,000

*The posted range reflects the base salary for this role across the market ranges for each location. Final compensation will depend on a variety of factors, including experience, skills, internal leveling, and market conditions, and will be offered within the stated range in accordance with applicable pay transparency laws.

Remote work and global collaboration The company operates as a remote-first, globally distributed organization. There is no fixed company-wide working schedule and no requirement to follow one specific time zone. Team members are expected to maintain sufficient working-hours overlap with their immediate colleagues to collaborate effectively. The successful candidate will work from Poland and collaborate with engineering, Machine Learning and product specialists located across different regions. Poland-based employees join existing global teams rather than a separate local team. The exact reporting line and hiring manager will be confirmed during the recruitment process. How the team works The company believes that outstanding products are built by small, highly capable and hands-on teams. Decisions are made collaboratively, while individuals are expected to take ownership, exercise sound judgment and execute independently. The team moves quickly while balancing product quality, experimentation and learning from real user behavior. There is no fixed hiring quota for this position. The company is focused on hiring people who meet its technical and ownership standards rather than filling a predetermined number of seats. Recruitment process The standard recruitment process consists of up to four stages: Technical assessment, where relevant to the candidate’s background. HR interview. One or more technical interviews. Founder or leadership interview. Particularly strong candidates may be fast-tracked directly to the technical interview stage based on their experience and previous work.
