Software Engineer, Android

About Limitless 👋

At Limitless, our vision is to free the human mind from its biological limitations. We are starting with memory. 90% of memories are forgotten after just a week. Not only that, but our memory gets worse as we get older. If there is a hearing aid for hearing and glasses for vision then why isn’t there the equivalent for memory? That question is why we started the company. We build software and hardware to capture what you see, say, and hear and make it useful.

The products we have today are just the first step toward our audacious vision.

We have raised over $33m from top-tier investors including Sam Altman, First Round Capital, Andreessen Horowitz, and NEA to help make that vision a reality.

Why Limitless 👀

The work you’ll do will have a tremendous impact on not just our company, but on society as a whole. We believe the best version of the future is one in which we augment - not replace - human intelligence with artificial intelligence. This is the key to unlocking humanity’s full potential, and you will play a critical role in helping us get there. Join us.

Why we need you ✨

• Our products today are just the beginning of what’s possible. We’ve proven the power of our platform across hardware and software, and now it’s time to bring that same experience to Android. The majority of the world runs on Android, and building a best-in-class mobile experience is critical to delivering on our mission at scale.

• We’re looking for our founding Android engineer: someone who wants to take ownership of this platform and lay the foundation for how people will interact with Limitless every day. You won’t just be building “an app.” You’ll be shaping how memory augmentation feels on Android devices, influencing architecture, UX, and the long-term direction of the product.

What will be your responsibilities 📓

• Leading Android development end-to-end, from architecture through shipping features that delight users.

• Designing and implementing modern, performant Android applications that handle real-time audio, data syncing, and AI-powered insights.

• Establishing best practices for Android development at Limitless and mentoring future team members as the team grows.

• Driving product decisions by bringing deep customer empathy into technical execution.

What will help you be successful 👏

• You’ve shipped modern Android apps used by thousands (ideally millions) of people and can point to work you’re proud of.

• Strong foundation in performance and reliability across diverse devices.

• Experience handling complex data, background processes, and system resource constraints.

• Comfortable moving fast in an early-stage environment: you know when to build scrappy and when to invest in foundations.

• A product mindset: you care as much about the experience as you do about the code.

What cultural values you need to embody 💥

✅ Decisive: Bias for action and learning.

🧠 Resourceful: Prioritize well in order to maximize impact with the least effort.

📈 Craft: Good judgment & consideration when deciding something is done enough

✋ Candor: Give candid feedback, receive it well, and speak up if you disagree

🗣️ Communication: Be transparent, create clarity out of ambiguity, and do it with zest

🙏 Collaboration: Help each other out, have empathy, and listen well.

$200,000 - $400,000 a year
