About the role
Build. Lead. Ship. From Anywhere. 🚀 At Fintex Inc., we're not just writing code—we're rewriting the rules of wealth management. We're a zero-to-one startup already partnered with Canada's financial giants, and we're moving at a pace that would make most companies dizzy. Founded this year, we've proven our concept. Now we're scaling fast, and we need a strong Android engineer who can build world-class experiences while working from wherever they do their best work. This is your chance to make a real technical impact at a company that's actually going somewhere—without leaving your home office. The Mission We're looking for an intermediate to senior Android developer who takes pride in writing clean, performant, production-ready code. You'll work closely with our architecture team and directly on wealth tech platforms used by some of Canada's biggest financial institutions. The setup: Remote-first. Real technical challenges. Growing team with actual impact. You'll see your work go live fast. We ship to production constantly, and your contributions will directly impact products in the hands of major banks' customers. What You'll Build Develop and maintain high-quality Android applications using Jetpack Compose, delivering institutional-grade reliability with consumer-grade polish Own end-to-end feature delivery, coordinating with backend and product teams to ensure seamless integration with APIs, payment systems, and third-party platforms Contribute to and uphold strong architectural patterns—your code will set the standard for the team Write production Kotlin daily—this isn't a hands-off role; you'll be deep in the codebase building and shipping Debug complex issues across devices, OS versions, and network conditions to deliver flawless user experiences Champion Android best practices around performance, security, accessibility, and offline functionality Participate in code reviews, share knowledge with teammates, and continuously raise the bar on quality What You Bring to the Table The Must-Haves 3–6+ years of Android development experience—you've shipped apps that real users love and depend on Deep expertise in Jetpack Compose and Kotlin—you're comfortable with modern Android UI development and understand the transition from the legacy View system Solid architectural thinking—you understand MVVM, Clean Architecture, and how to structure apps that scale and stay maintainable API integration experience—you've built apps that communicate with RESTful services, handle authentication flows, and manage complex data synchronization Performance awareness—you know how to profile, optimize, and deliver smooth, responsive experiences Security mindset—you understand Android security best practices, secure storage, certificate pinning, and what it takes to protect sensitive financial data Strong communicator—you can articulate technical decisions clearly and translate product requirements into solid engineering solutions Self-driven and remote-ready—you thrive with autonomy and know how to stay productive and connected while working independently The Game-Changers Cross-platform experience with Flutter or React Native—the ability to contribute across platforms will multiply your impact Full-stack comfort—familiarity with backend technologies means you can unblock yourself and collaborate more effectively Fintech or regulated industry experience—you understand the unique challenges of building financial applications Startup experience—you've built things from scratch and understand the pace and ambiguity of early-stage growth Why This Role is Different Most Android roles at big companies mean rigid processes, slow release cycles, and mandatory desk time. Here's what makes this different: ✅ 100% Remote – Work from anywhere in Canada. We care about what you ship, not where you sit ✅ Startup energy, enterprise impact – Move fast while building apps used by major financial institutions ✅ Real ownership – Your code and contributions will shape our Android platform for years ✅ Direct impact – Ship features that land in the hands of millions of users ✅ Cutting-edge tech – Work with AI, biometrics, real-time payments, and emerging mobile technologies ✅ Career growth – A clear path toward senior, lead, and beyond as we scale ✅ No bureaucracy – Skip the commute, skip the meetings-about-meetings, and focus on building The Startup Advantage Joining a startup isn't just a job change—it's a career accelerator. Here's what you get that big companies can't offer: 🚀 Broaden your skillset by working across the full mobile stack 🚀 See your decisions matter in weeks, not years 🚀 Shape the engineering culture from day one 🚀 Build direct relationships with leadership and investors 🚀 Grow with the company—your ceiling is as high as you want to take it The Bottom Line We're a remote-first startup with enterprise clients—a rare combination that gives you startup speed, big-company impact, and the freedom to work from anywhere. You'll build apps that help people manage their wealth, write systems that need to work flawlessly, and help shape a company culture from the ground up. If you're tired of commuting, tired of moving slow, want to build something meaningful, and are ready to do the best Android work of your career—let's talk.
