Software Engineer

Android Developer – Health & Wellbeing Tech Startup

Remote (UK) | Up to £100k + Bonus & Benefits

develop’s Software Engineering team are working exclusively with an ambitious health and wellbeing startup that’s building a next-generation wellness platform from the ground up.

This is a greenfield product with a privacy-first, AI-driven approach, designed to genuinely improve people’s lives rather than simply collect their data. Backed by a proven tech incubator with products used by millions globally, the business combines startup energy with long-term financial stability.

You’ll be joining early, owning the Android experience, and playing a key role in shaping both the product and the engineering culture.

The Opportunity

• Take ownership of a native Android application built with Kotlin and Jetpack Compose
• Work on a platform where AI and ML are core to the product, not an afterthought
• Build on-device, privacy-preserving features with no data harvesting shortcuts
• Collaborate with a small, senior team who’ve built and scaled successful products
• Influence architecture, tooling, and user experience from day one

What You’ll Be Doing

• Designing, developing, and maintaining a high-quality Android app
• Integrating with Kotlin Multiplatform modules for shared business logic and data
• Implementing on-device ML for personalised user experiences
• Building integrations with Google Fit and Health Connect
• Working closely with design to deliver polished, accessible Material Design UI
• Optimising performance across devices, screen sizes, and Android versions
• Supporting Play Store releases and ongoing delivery

What We’re Looking For

• Strong commercial experience with Kotlin and Jetpack Compose
• Solid understanding of modern Android architecture and components
• Experience with Kotlin Multiplatform is highly desirable
• Exposure to TensorFlow Lite or on-device ML is a plus
• A strong focus on performance, accessibility, and user experience
• Comfortable taking ownership in an early-stage, fast-moving environment
• Industry experience strongly preferred

Why Join?

• Build a product designed to make a real difference to people’s wellbeing
• Join at an early stage — currently a small team, growing to 14–15 people within 6 months
• Backed by a successful tech incubator with a strong delivery track record
• High-trust, low-ego culture where impact matters more than job titles
• Remote-first, with optional face time at the South Coast office

Package

• Salary up to £100k, depending on experience
• Up to 10% performance-based bonus
• 29 days holiday (inclusive)
• 5% matched pension
• Private healthcare
• Paid subscriptions
• Gym access
• Monthly retail & entertainment vouchers

If you’re an Android engineer looking for real ownership, technical influence, and the chance to build something meaningful from the very beginning, this is absolutely worth a conversation.
