Senior Android Developer

Taiv is a fast-growing tech startup located in Winnipeg, Canada. Taiv uses AI to make business TV more fun, engaging, profitable, and easier to manage, starting with bars and restaurants. We've built proprietary tech that uses computer vision to watch live TV and improve the content with contextually-aware commercials, content, and games. Our tech also automates the manual AV tasks that venues have to do every day, to make bar management easier, standardized, and more profitable. We're venture-capital backed and graduated from Y Combinator, the world's top tech accelerator, in winter 2020. Program alumni include Airbnb, Instacart, DoorDash, etc. ( www.ycombinator.com/topcompanies ).

We are looking for a Senior Android Developer to join our growing team!

We run thousands of custom Android boxes in venues, and keeping that fleet stable is a hard, unsolved problem. This role sits on the team that owns the software side of our Android AOSP handoff. You'll expand and help standardize the logging and diagnostics that tell us when something goes wrong and how it happened. You'll also diagnose and fix performance bottlenecks, and work through the low-level bugs and compatibility issues that show up where our software meets our hardware. When the firmware team hits something on the software side, you're who they come to.

This isn't app-layer Android, although you may touch it occasionally. You'll work at the framework and vendor layer, alongside our firmware and embedded engineers, writing software that keeps an IoT device fleet reliable at scale. If you've spent your career in AOSP or vendor Android and want to own reliability for thousands of devices in the field, this is that role.

Expand and help standardize our logging and diagnostic systems so we know when something goes wrong, and how it happened.

Diagnose and fix performance bottlenecks in the Android layer.
