Opera Sweden is looking for an Android developer to our new Cryptocurrency team.

We are the first major browser to natively integrate a crypto wallet. As an Android developer in our cryptocurrency team, you will be on the cutting edge of building the “web 3” and helping make Bitcoin and Ethereum first class citizens of the modern internet.

You will be a part of a small, focused and supportive team of developers, QA:s and business developers. We use Lean principles for day to day work and best technical practices. We work hard together to reach our goals and make the blockchain available for more people . We also understand that work life balance is important to be able to perform and offer flexible working hours.

Role and responsibilities

Although this is a front-end position, you need to have a strong interest in (and ideally experience with) blockchain, Ethereum and/or Bitcoin. In this role you will implement and maintain features for our crypto wallet. This means being responsible for:

• Building pixel-perfect front-ends from design and interaction mockups
• Taking part in our design and architecture discussions
• Interacting with our UX design team
• Reviewing the client code of other developers
• Integrating back- and front-end components

To be successful in this role, you’ll need:

• 2+ years of experience in developing Android applications
• Strong written and verbal communication skills (in English)
• CI/CD principles
• Version control using git
• Engineering knowledge: your code should be well structured and comprehensible by other humans, not just computers

An ideal candidate has:

• Deep understanding of blockchain technology, especially Ethereum
• Strong knowledge about web technologies
• Experience of developing features for a mass-market consumer product

We offer:

• An opportunity to experience the thrill and challenges of working in an international internet company with a huge global user base
• A flat org structure and friendly atmosphere where we learn and grow together
• A place in the team that works on the most cutting edge technologies
• A flexible work environment
• Great company benefits
