SoundCloud empowers artists, tastemakers and fans to connect and share through music. Founded in 2007, SoundCloud is a creator-first platform helping artists build and grow their careers by providing them with the most advanced tools, services, and resources. With over 4x the music catalog of every other major streaming platform, spanning 40+ million artists across 190+ countries, SoundCloud is where emerging artists find their sound, hidden gems are discovered, and music culture is shaped in real time.

We are looking for a mid-level Android Engineer to join the SoundCloud Fan Monetization team. Our mission is to deepen the connection between fans and creators, building features that enhance how fans engage with and support their favorite artists. In this role, you will operate as part of a truly global team, collaborating regularly with engineers and product partners in London, Berlin, and elsewhere to deliver high-quality mobile experiences. You’ll focus almost exclusively on a modern Jetpack Compose stack, shipping high-impact features to millions of users worldwide.

This role offers a fantastic growth runway. You'll work in a forward-thinking environment that fully embraces AI acceleration to streamline development, while focusing on building clean, intuitive user interfaces.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Develop and scale SoundCloud's fan-facing features across Android, focusing heavily on building clean, responsive UI and features using Kotlin and Jetpack Compose
  • Embrace and utilize advanced AI tools to safely, securely, and responsibly accelerate your coding workflows, code reviews, and testing
  • Partner closely with product, design, and data teams across our international offices (including London and Berlin) to define, build, and iterate on features
  • Participate in feature scoping, product experimentation (A/B testing), analytics integration, and agile delivery to optimize user engagement
  • Engage in code reviews and engineering best practices to maintain a high standard of performance, accessibility, and platform consistency

Experience and Background:

  • 3+ years of experience building Android applications with a solid foundation in Kotlin and a strong familiarity with Jetpack Compose
  • You prefer looking forward; this role focuses entirely on our modern Kotlin/Jetpack Compose components, with no requirement to maintain or refactor legacy Java or outdated architectures
  • Excited about leveraging AI development assistants to optimize your productivity, code quality, and learning
  • Skilled at working within agile, distributed teams, proactively communicating, and breaking down problems into elegant, maintainable code
  • While your primary focus is Android, an openness or curiosity toward occasionally learning or collaborating across other tech stacks—such as iOS, Web, or Backend (Go)—is a welcome plus
  • You love music, mobile products, and the idea of helping creators build closer bonds with their audience

The salary range for this role is $140,000 - $165,000 annually. The final salary offered will be determined based on relative experience, skills, internal equity, and location. We also offer a generous total rewards program - read more about additional benefits and perks below!

  • We provide a flexible work culture that offers the opportunity to collaborate and connect in person at our offices as well as accommodating work from home
  • We are deeply committed to ensuring diversity, equity and inclusion at all levels of our organization and fostering a community where everyone’s voice, perspective and experience is respected and heard
  • We believe a strong team is made by investing in employees through mentorship, workshops and enrichment opportunities
