What is Blinq?

At Blinq, we believe the first interaction can spark opportunities that last a lifetime. That’s why we built the world’s #1 digital business card - an instant, intuitive way to exchange details - and that success has won our wedge into something bigger. Next, we’re building on that momentum to reshape how professionals stay connected – not just in the moment, but long after. In a world where follow-ups slip through the cracks and relationships are increasingly fragmented, we’re building the tools to keep people genuinely connected. If you’re driven to shape the future of human connection, we’d love to have you with us.


Why You’ll Love It Here

Customers love it: Over 100K reviews and a 4.9/5 rating on the App Store - people around the world rely on Blinq to make that first interaction count.

Rapid growth: Doubling ARR every few months, expanding into new markets, and rapidly building our team across Sydney, Melbourne, San Francisco, and New York

Well-resourced: Backed by top VCs like Blackbird and Square Peg, we’re continuously investing in the people and tools that fuel our mission.

A rare moment to join: We’re hitting an inflection point - big enough to have momentum, small enough for you to shape the journey.

The way we work: We value real connections, inside and out - our offices buzz with creativity, and fresh ideas can come from anywhere. We’re big believers in the spark that happens when people come together in person. That’s why we spend three days a week collaborating in the office - trading ideas, solving problems face-to-face, and celebrating small wins. The rest of the week is yours to work wherever you’re most productive.


Engineering at Blinq

Our engineering team is the engine behind Blinq’s success. We’re building tools that make sharing who you are instant and human. Every line of code, every release, and every experiment is focused on driving meaningful impact. If you thrive on solving complex, high-impact problems with a tight-knit team, you’ll feel right at home here.


Role & Impact

As a Senior Android Engineer at Blinq, you’ll take the lead in evolving our Android platform, designing and delivering intuitive, scalable experiences that support millions of users worldwide. You’ll set the bar for technical excellence, drive architectural decisions, and play a pivotal role in shaping how we build and scale mobile at Blinq.

What You’ll Do

  • Lead development of key features in the Blinq Android app, including integrations with native device capabilities and platform components
  • Drive architectural improvements that scale with our global user base and evolving product surface
  • Partner closely with product, design, and backend teams to deliver seamless, high-performance experiences
  • Mentor other engineers, lead code reviews, and champion quality, testing, and maintainability
  • Contribute to internal tooling, CI/CD improvements, and performance optimisation efforts

What You’ll Bring

  • 5+ years of Android engineering experience, with expert-level Kotlin skills and deep understanding of Android internals
  • Track record of building and maintaining complex mobile apps in production, ideally in high-growth startups or scale-ups
  • Solid knowledge of Android architecture patterns like MVVM, MVP, or Clean Architecture
  • Experience leading projects, making technical decisions, and mentoring junior team members
  • Bonus: Experience with Jetpack Compose, GraphQL, or performance profiling tools
  • A degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field

What You Get

We’re serious about our mission to help the world connect, but we also make sure our own team is thriving - both in and outside of work. Here’s a taste of what you can expect:


Equity & ownership: We’re building something massive, and we want you to share in the upside.

Competitive salary & growth path: As Blinq grows, your role and compensation grow with it - no glass ceilings here.

Generous paid time off: We encourage everyone to take at least 20 days fully disconnect each year, with a flexible policy beyond that.

Parental leave: Inclusive policies to ensure you have the support you need for your family.

Free food: Enjoy daily breakfast and lunch in the office, plus an always-stocked snack bar.
