About BJAK
The original mission of BJAK is we believe people deserve smarter ways to plan, save and grow their money. This is the origin of our name.
Started in 2019, we built the first mobile-first, insurance platform, enabling insurance to be accessible online by millions in the region. Today, it's the leading insurance platform in Southeast Asia.
Today, we are expanding ways to help people in the region — this includes spending, saving, investing, exchanging, travelling, and more. Our mission is to help people get more from their money every day.
We have teams working around the world, with over 20 nationalities from our offices and remotely, who truly enjoy their work. We are looking for the most talented and driven people we can find. We are looking for people who work for their passion, not counting hours. Who loves building great next-generation products, not status quo. Who cares about redefining how everyone around us can get the best financial applications, not for an exclusive few.
If you're this person, we'd love to talk to you.
About the Job
We are looking for talented Native Android Engineers to build and evolve our Android applications that power BJAK's insurance and financial products. You will also contribute to features that leverage automation and AI-assisted capabilities where they improve user experience and operational efficiency.
This is a fully remote position where you will be part of a global engineering team working across multiple countries to build reliable, scalable native mobile systems.
What You'll Own
- 3+ years of native Android development experience using Kotlin.
- Strong experience building and shipping production Android applications.
- Solid understanding of Jetpack Compose, Android SDK, Coroutines, Flow and modern Android architecture patterns (MVVM/Clean Architecture).
- Strong knowledge of Android lifecycle, performance optimization and native platform best practices.
- Experience integrating REST APIs and debugging production issues.
- Comfortable working independently in a distributed remote engineering team.
- High ownership, fast execution and strong attention to engineering quality.
- GitHub, Google Play links or examples of shipped native Android applications are highly preferred.

Interview Process
The process consists of three stages:
Online Coding Assessment
We assess coding fundamentals, problem-solving ability and code quality.
Technical Interview
We assess native Android development, architecture, Android platform fundamentals, API integration, debugging, performance optimization, UX thinking and production-quality engineering.
CEO Interview
We assess ownership, execution speed, ambition, judgement, integrity and alignment with BJAK's builder culture.
Please share links to your Google Play applications, GitHub repositories, portfolio or examples of shipped native Android applications where possible. We value real-world engineering experience, clear ownership and honest thinking more than a formal cover letter.
