About BJAK
The original mission of BJAK is we believe people deserve smarter ways to plan, save and grow their money. This is the origin of our name.
Started in 2019, we built the first mobile-first, insurance platform, enabling insurance to be accessible online by millions in the region. Today, its the leading insurance platform in Southeast Asia.
Today, we are expanding ways to help people in the region — this includes spending, saving, investing, exchanging, travelling, and more. Our mission is help people get more from their money every day.
We have teams working around the world, with over 20 nationalities from our offices and remotely, who truly enjoys their work. We are looking for the most talented and driven people we can find. We are looking for people who work for their passion, not counting hours. Who loves building great next-generation products, not status quo. Who cares about redefining how everyone around us can get the best financial applications, not for an exclusive few.
If you're this person, we'd love to talk to you.

 

About the Job
We are looking for talented Android Software Engineers to build and evolve our mobile applications that power BJAK's insurance and financial products. You will also contribute to features that leverage automation and AI-assisted capabilities where they improve user experience and operational efficiency.
This is a fully remote position where you will be part of a global engineering team working across multiple countries to build reliable, scalable mobile systems.

 
What You’ll Own
  • Build and ship Android features using Kotlin.

  • Create clean mobile flows for insurance, payments, claims, renewals and financial services.

  • Work with product and design to simplify complex user journeys.

  • Integrate backend APIs and ensure mobile flows are stable and reliable.

  • Improve performance, crash rate, loading states, responsiveness and memory usage.

  • Use analytics, user behaviour and production issues to improve the product.

  • Build AI-assisted mobile experiences only where they genuinely improve the user journey.

 
What We’re Looking For
  • 3+ years of Android development experience using Kotlin.

  • Strong Android fundamentals and experience shipping production apps.

  • Good knowledge of Jetpack, Coroutines, Flow and modern Android architecture.

  • Strong sense of mobile UX, usability, edge cases and user flows.

  • Experience integrating REST APIs and debugging production issues.

  • Fast execution, high ownership and strong attention to product quality.

  • App links, GitHub, screenshots or examples of shipped work are a strong advantage.


Tech Stack
  • Kotlin / Java

  • SQL / noSQL

  • TensorFlow Lite (on-device inference)

 
The Kind of Builder We Want
  • Thinks in user journeys, not just screens.

  • Cares about making complex products feel simple.

  • Moves fast without creating messy code.

  • Comfortable with ambiguity and changing requirements.

  • Notices UX, performance and reliability issues before users complain.

  • Honest about what they personally built, what was team-owned and what impact they can or cannot claim.

 
This Role Is Not For
  • Engineers who only want fully defined tickets.

  • Developers who build screens without caring about user experience.

  • People who ignore crashes, edge cases, loading states or performance.

  • Engineers who move slowly in a startup environment.

  • People who exaggerate impact without explaining their actual contribution.

 
Success Looks Like
  • Android features ship fast and reliably.

  • The app becomes simpler, faster and easier to use.

  • Users can complete financial journeys with less confusion.

  • Production issues reduce over time.

  • BJAK builds one of the cleanest finance app experiences in Malaysia.

 
Interview Process

The process has 3 rounds:

  1. Online Coding Assessment
    We assess coding fundamentals, problem-solving and code quality.

  2. Technical Interview
    We assess Android fundamentals, architecture, API integration, debugging, UX thinking and production-quality engineering.

  3. CEO Round

    We assess ownership, speed, ambition, honesty, judgement and fit with BJAK’s builder culture.


Please share links to apps, GitHub, screenshots or shipped work where possible. We care more about real work, clear ownership and honest thinking than a formal cover letter.
