Android OS Engineer - AOSP | AR/VR

Overview

We\’re hiring an Android OS Engineer to help build the operating systems behind next-generation AR/VR devices. This is deep technical work across Android internals, AOSP integrations, system frameworks, and performance-critical components. If you enjoy working close to the metal and shaping the foundations of immersive hardware, you\’ll feel at home here.

What’s on offer

• Annual Salary from £98,000-£110,000 doe and location, paid weekly via Principle HR
• Fully remote within the UK (must already be UK-based with full right to work)

• Exposure to embedded, device-level or resource-constrained environments is beneficial

What you\\\’ll work on

• Integrate new Android/AOSP releases into custom AR/VR system frameworks
• Build, debug and optimise OS-level services, APIs and internal infrastructure
• Work with engineering teams across the UK and Europe on system design and stability
• Contribute to performance profiling, low-level debugging and system tooling
• Support the evolution of a complex, large-scale Android-based platform
