Integrate with backend APIs and platform services to power search, filtering, sorting, and personalization in the lodging experience.
Instrument features with analytics, logging, and monitoring to support A/B testing, product insights, and rapid iteration.
Participate in code reviews, design discussions, and technical decision-making to evolve our mobile architecture and shared frameworks.
Contribute to automated testing (unit, integration, and UI tests) and support a robust CI/CD pipeline for frequent, safe releases.
Help triage and resolve production issues, performing root-cause analysis and implementing long-term fixes and improvements.
Work closely with other mobile engineers across Expedia Group to share best practices, align on standards, and improve developer productivity.
Champion a customer-centric and experimentation-driven mindset, using data to validate hypotheses and inform future iterations.

Track record of leading technical design for significant Android features or components, making data-informed decisions, and guiding trade-offs around performance, reliability, and usability.
Hands-on experience integrating AI- or ML-powered capabilities into mobile apps (for example, personalization, recommendations, or intelligent automation) and safely operating these solutions in production.
Familiarity with AI-driven systems, tools, or workflows in the mobile development lifecycle (such as AI-assisted testing, diagnostics, or developer productivity tools) and applying these to improve engineering efficiency.
Strong focus on operational excellence, including monitoring, alerting, incident response, and continuous improvement of Android services and features in collaboration with backend and platform teams.
Knowledge of accessibility and inclusive design basics on Android (e.g., TalkBack, touch targets, contrast) and a desire to improve the accessibility of native experiences.
