Overview
We at Benny are building software infrastructure to make it easier for the 1 in 8 Americans receiving SNAP dollars (i.e., food stamps) to manage, spend, and earn rewards on their government benefits. We recently launched our consumer mobile application and plan to hire a founding Android Engineer to own its future development against our ambitious roadmap.
Responsibilities
- Own development of our Kotlin Multiplatform and Multiplatform Compose UI application.
- Continue to promote and cultivate best practices for mobile development.
- Collaborate with other engineers across the development stack along with Design and Product
- Assist with mentoring, hiring, and company culture building.
How We Build
Our engineering philosophy is to leverage the best tools and technologies, allowing us to focus on solving differentiated hard problems. As the Founding Android Engineer, you'll define these tools. Some technologies we use that we are particularly impressed with and currently leverage are:
- Kotlin Multiplatform and Compose Multiplatform UI (our Android app is our iOS app)
- Cash App's Molecule and SQLDelight
- Ktor server and all things Kotlin (if interested, you can contribute to our Ktor Server backend)

Our investors include Matrix Partners, Able Partners, New York State's venture fund, and notable fintech angel investors.
