Company Description

Dailymotion is more than a video app, it's a visual conversation in motion, based on a unique algorithm designed to broaden users' horizons. Dailymotion brings nuance to the debates that animate young people and puts listening, discovery, and kindness back at the heart of interactions to help build a better and safer Internet.

Dailymotion is also "Dailymotion Pro", a video hosting and broadcasting solution for professionals in all sectors; and "Dailymotion Advertising", a powerful, proprietary video advertising platform, offering a high-quality, secure environment for brands.

Our team is made up of 400 people in France, New York, Singapore, Milan, Madrid and London all united by the same ambition: to visibly shake up the global video platform ecosystem.

Job Description

Join a startup-minded squad within Dailymotion on a mission to build THE next big social app.

Our team is composed of 3 Android engineers, 3 iOS engineers, and 2 Python backend developers, all working together at high velocity to crack the code of tomorrow's social platform. You'll be joining the Android team of 3, where extreme ownership, rapid iteration, and smart decision-making are at the core of everything we do.

This isn't about executing tickets. You'll co-create the product alongside Design, QA, and Product teams, building an Android experience used by millions of users where every millisecond and animation matters.

  • Collaborate closely with Product, Design, QA, iOS, and Backend teams in a strong team-first culture to ship world-class features
  • Own app performance and stability, proactively resolving issues and continuously optimizing the experience
  • Be a driver of engineering and product culture, pushing the entire team toward excellence and sharing best practices
  • Continuously innovate on our Android tech stack and explore AI opportunities to enhance the user experience

  • 5+ years of Android development experience with strong mastery of modern architectures and engineering best practices
  • Proven track record building high-traffic B2C apps (ideally social, media, or entertainment)
  • Product mindset: genuine passion for crafting exceptional user experiences (smooth animations, polished interfaces)
  • Data-driven approach: you make decisions based on metrics and analytics
  • Pragmatic and results-oriented: you know how to find smart shortcuts to maximize business impact without sacrificing quality
  • Fluent in English (written and spoken) / French is a plus

🌟 Nice to Have

  • Experience integrating AI/ML features into mobile applications
  • Strong knowledge of modern frameworks: Jetpack Compose, Kotlin Coroutines/Flow, Architecture Components
  • Experience with A/B testing and conversion optimization
  • Rapid iteration culture and continuous shipping mindset
  • Contributions to open-source projects or tech leadership in Android communities
  • Interest in social app trends and understanding of user behaviors
