This Role
As a Software Engineer, you will execute research and development projects to strengthen the lock technology that undergirds our loan products. This is a deep Android environment where the initial emphasis is on the research and subsequent productization of sub-Android techniques for securing devices.
This role carries high uncertainty, high challenge, and high reward. Stronger locks mean more secure loans. More secure loans mean we can offer smartphones and credit to as wide an audience as possible.
This is a dynamic environment. We favor a highly adaptable mindset and believe in breaking through walls. You’ll need a strong dose of independence and persistence, but also collaboration. The initial effort is research-focused, but the intention is to integrate this work into our existing products.
