Our team consists of smart, humble, and collaborative people who value ownership over all we do to create a product, team, and company that lives and breathes our motto: Build Together, Grow Together, Win Together.
We’re embarking on a compelling new vision to help transform the on-device experience on Android together with our OEM partners. Our early efforts are already deployed on millions of devices globally. We’re looking for our next Android Engineering Intern to participate in scaling this and taking our product to the next level! If you love the mobile space, are seeking an opportunity to dabble in advanced Android, want to learn how to build a production SDK, gain confidence reading and writing code that ships and runs daily on multiple millions of devices, all while collaborating with a world-class team building complementary services, come join us!
As an Android Engineering Intern, you’ll get to:
- Help design, develop and scale on-device services powering an advanced search platform
- Participate in building and shipping a high-quality software development kit (SDK) that enables our partners to integrate with our platform and provide delightful experiences to end-users
- Cut your teeth on advanced Android concepts like Kotlin coroutines, database access, inter process communication, thread safety, etc. Put those courses to work!
- Ideate and develop futuristic features that enable our partners to continually iterate on deploying unique, outstanding experiences powered by Branch. Unleash your creativity!
- Innovate on ways to manage the evolution of the SDKs as partner and product needs change

- Learn to take vague product requirements and help flesh them out and breathe life into them with code
- Collaborate with product managers, infrastructure, platform, and data scientists
