Twitter is what’s happening and what people are talking about right now. For us, life's not about a job, it's about purpose. We believe real change starts with conversation. Here, your voice matters. Come as you are and together we'll do what's right (not what's easy) to serve the public conversation. At Twitter, you can have a truly global impact.

About us:

The Client UI Android Team is responsible for the user experience of Twitter for Android across every surface area of our product. We care deeply about both the Twitter user experience and the Twitter developer experience. 

Our work is focused on helping Twitter’s feature developers iterate and ship fast, ensuring that developers are able to work in a pleasant, modern, UI-first environment, and building and maintaining a consistent, thoughtful, accessible user experience throughout the app.

We achieve this by:

• Building a robust, modular, accessible set of components, primarily in Jetpack Compose, that help developers to rapidly prototype and build consistent UI based on our design system.

• Designing and developing app-wide concerns like navigation, UI and UX consistency, and universal features (Settings, Navigation elements, etc).

• Building tools and frameworks to make UI development faster, safer, and easier to prototype.

• Leading the roll out of modern Android tools like Jetpack Compose.

• Providing support and guidance for all things UI development on Android, including code reviews, education, engineering support, and documentation.

If our team’s work sounds interesting and exciting to you, you’re in the right place!
