Picnic is an app-only supermarket. Our customers expect a mobile
store that is smooth and bug-free. We’re on a quest for innovative
Android developers to push creative features while retaining simplicity.
Where you fit in
Picnic’s
customers rely on the mobile app. They use it to buy their fresh, high
quality, and weekly groceries. Our developers make their interaction
quick and seamless - not a finger marathon!
As
an Android Developer at Picnic you’ll be working with Kotlin. We saw
its potential in 2016 and embraced it. This reflects our mindset -
pushing design to be simple and functional with a relentless focus on
innovation. Check out our stats:

Not bad. But you can help us do better.
You
are accountable for maintaining an easy-to-use, reliable app. When
updates are released, you roll them out to users and track their
activity for bugs. A smooth app is vital. Critical bugs lead to; no
deliveries, empty cupboards, and unhappy customers.
Using
hands-on experience with the product development cycle you constantly
test, evolve, and evaluate our features. You collaborate with designers
to bring their prototypes into a functional reality. Real customers test
the app in our user-testing lab giving you the opportunity to trial new
features each week.
You’re ready to meet ambiguous requirements to ensure a smooth, elegant and user-friendly experience for all our customers!
We
don’t hide our developments. We open-source with the community that
helped us grow. If you require more motivation to apply - check out our
