đź‘‹ Hi, my name is Mohammed.
I'm an Engineering Manager at Yassir, leading the tech teams behind our financial services Channels.
I’m currently hiring a Staff Android Engineer to join my team — someone who’s not just here to code, but to build, grow, and lead by example.
🚀 I’m building a team driven by one mindset: Best by Excellence.
A team where engineers don’t just ship features — they own problems, care about craft, and push each other to grow.
Where autonomy meets collaboration, and where we challenge ourselves to be better — every day.
That’s why I’m not looking for someone to just write code.
I’m looking for an engineer — someone who understands architecture, questions trade-offs, learns relentlessly, and builds with clarity and intent.
This role is for someone who wants to take ownership, challenge the status quo, and grow into a technical leader — not just deliver features.
đź’ˇ Why join my team?
Because I’m not just building an app —
I’m building a culture where people push each other toward excellence, with humility and ambition.
You’ll get real ownership, continuous mentorship, and a place where your technical voice matters.
You’ll build things you’ll be proud of — and become someone you’ll be proud of too.
👨‍💻 You might be the right fit if:
- You’ve already worked as a Staff Engineer or Tech Lead and you know what it means to drive impact beyond just code.
- You’re an expert in Android development (Kotlin) with deep experience in scaling apps and teams.
- You think in systems, not just screens.
- You lead by example — through clean code, mentoring, documentation, and architectural clarity.
- You have strong opinions about architecture, modularization, testing, security, and CI/CD — and you know how to challenge the status quo with respect and vision.
- You thrive in environments where you own the decisions, not just the implementation.
🔧 As a Staff Android Engineer in the Financial Services domain, you’ll be expected to:
- Own and evolve the mobile architecture across several product lines (Wallet, Payments, Billing).
- Define engineering standards for performance, testing, modularity, and maintainability across squads.
- Design and scale clean, testable, and secure systems, aligned with long-term product vision.
- Lead technical discovery and decision-making, balancing trade-offs with clarity.
- Drive adoption of Jetpack Compose, modular architecture.
- Build with a strong focus on security, performance, accessibility, and resilience.
- Guide CI/CD and release strategy to support quality at speed.
At Yassir, we believe in the power of diversity and the importance of an inclusive culture. So, if you're ready to bring your unique perspective and experiences to the table, then we're excited to listen.
Don't just apply for a job, come and be a part of our journey. Let's create a better tomorrow together.
We look forward to receiving your application!
Best of luck,
Your Yassir TA Team
