About the role
At Lyft, our purpose is to serve and connect. We aim to achieve this by cultivating a work environment where all team members belong and have the opportunity to thrive.
The Luxury team builds rich and creative features that set the standard for premium ground transportation. We’re looking for a motivated mid-career Android mobile engineer to build app experiences, UIs, and infrastructure for Black, Black SUV, and other upmarket modes in the Lyft app, as well as Alcove, Lyft’s new global chauffeur network. Alcove brings high-touch service to corporate travel programs and their passengers, handling everything from VIP travel to large events and multi-vehicle trips. Across all of it, quality is uncompromising. We work on balancing and growing these unique marketplaces and influencing driver and chauffeur behavior to facilitate the highest-quality rides.
Ownership is a key quality for this team; this person should be driven to track a project to successful completion and beyond, taking initiative to work with other teams and functions to ensure the code they write reaches users and drives impact.
You'll collaborate with engineering, product, data science, analytics, and operations teams across Lyft and Alcove on programs that empower us to iterate quickly, delighting our passengers, bookers, drivers, and chauffeurs. Preferred applicants intend to work regularly from our CDMX office, where team members collaborate together in person.
