Android Developer

At Nordic Entertainment Group, we entertain millions of people every day through our streaming services, radio networks, TV channels and production companies. From live sports and films to music and our own original shows, our purpose is to tell stories, touch lives and expand worlds. We’re now launching our Viaplay streaming service in a wide range of new markets and aiming to become the international streaming challenger. As a Nordic company with a global perspective and clear values, we’re looking for the best talents to join us on our journey.

The position

As an Android developer, you will join Viaplay with the mission to further develop and maintain our mobile apps, keep them best-in-class and the main entry point to Viaplay. You’ll be involved in the whole development lifecycle (definition, development, maintenance, etc.) and everyday work will consist of development, design, complexity assessment, test and deployment and much more. We clearly believe that being on the edge of things when it comes to technology is crucial, always keeping ourselves up to date and constantly questioning the status quo.

You will join a cross-functional team (client and backend development, UI/UX, product management) and deliver engineering solutions aligned with technical and product long-term visions. The team delivers on clear goals based on our customer journey and are fully autonomous in how to create the best solutions to reach their goals. In other words, if you are into working in an innovative way and done with just delivering on Jira tickets all day - we have an offer you can’t refuse!



The journey ahead

In the last year, we have brought Viaplay to Iceland, the Baltics, Poland, US and go live in the Netherlands and UK in 2022. By the end of 2023, we will be live in 16 countries.

Some of your daily tasks will include - but not be limited to:

- Running and taking ownership of technical design, complexity assessment, development, test and deployment
- Collaboration with other teams in an exciting and agile development process
- Working with video-oriented content and video player
- Have contact with internal stakeholders to understand their needs and how we as a team can support them in the best way possible
- Improving our product iterations based on consumer feedback and behavior data.


What we are looking for

To be our next colleague, we believe you are currently working as an Android Developer with several years of experience of building native mobile apps. If you are excited about great audio- and video quality - and want to bring that to our millions of customers - this is the role you.

Ideal candidates also meet the following requirements:

- Solid experience solving complex problems on Android platforms.
- Experience from building apps that are live on Google Play.

- A hybrid and flexible work model to make it able to work part-time remotely.
