We’re not about selling products - we want to solve problems and change lives through Monzo ❤️
📍 Barcelona, Spain | 💰 Base salary for this role is depending on experience + Incentive Awards tied to your performance + benefits
Hybrid model: 3 days a week in the office
There are ~60 Android engineers at Monzo and we’re looking for more to join the team. We have several non-graduates; only some of us studied Computer Science; some of us have worked in huge companies; some have only ever worked in startups; others are former consultants. As long as you enjoy learning new things, we’d love to talk to you.
We have around 650 engineers out of roughly 5,500 people in total - and we have big ambitions. There are many interesting challenges ahead, and we're happy for people to move between teams or to specialise, whatever you prefer. As an engineer here you'd be able to work directly with anyone across the company, and we run regular knowledge-sharing sessions so you’ll learn heaps about everything from how banks work to effective communication.
We’re searching for product-focused Android engineers to evolve our native mobile app. You’ll take pride in building polished user experiences, and you’ll balance the need for well-tested resilient code with moving fast and iterating.
You’ll be working on a product that is a part of day to day life for more than 11 million people already, and your work here will shape the way that people interact with their finances.
As an Android Engineer at Monzo you'll work in a small, autonomous product squad alongside iOS Engineers, Backend Engineers, User Researchers, Product Designers, Product Managers, QA Testers, and Data Scientists.
You and your team will be responsible for an overall company goal, rather than building a specific feature - you'll have the opportunity to have impact on both what we build, and how we build it. Mobile engineers at Monzo work on everything from the personal banking product to customer support tools. We also have a small mobile platform squad dedicated to enabling other engineers to move faster.
Every week we meet as an Android discipline to discuss tools, techniques, problems we're encountering across the company and work together to improve our codebase and processes.
You'll report to an engineering manager who will meet with you every 1-2 weeks 1:1. They’re dedicated to helping you grow and develop as an engineer.
Our app is 100% Kotlin, built using MVVM (Model View ViewModel) and Coordinators, and modularised by product feature.
We use RxJava, Retrofit and Moshi for API calls and Dagger for dependency injection. We’re starting to use Coroutines for most new features. Room is our choice for persistence, and we use repositories for interacting with data. We’ve built out our design system with Compose.
We use GitHub Pull Requests to do code reviews, and write unit tests for our ViewModels, Coordinators, and any other classes which contain logic. We write tests for all of our Compose screens and snapshot test them with Happo. We also use Espresso to test flows, which are executed via our continuous integration system.
We’ve previously written about building Monzo Chat on Android, which goes into detail on some of these elements.
We're on the look out for L30 Engineers at the moment, you can read more in our Engineering Progression Framework you will be interviewed across the whole framework, so if you're not sure what level you're aiming for chat to your recruiter!

If you're successful in applying for this role, we'll work with you to find a start date. In some cases, there might be a delay in when you can be released from your current role so that we can make sure things continue to run smoothly. We’ll be sure to communicate this with you and keep you updated.
Diversity and inclusion are a priority for us and we’re making sure we have lots of support for all of our people to grow at Monzo. At Monzo, we’re embracing diversity by fostering an inclusive environment for all people to do the best work of their lives with us. This is integral to our mission of making money work for everyone.

No. Monzo's senior backend engineering posting says there is no mandated requirement on office attendance, even for engineers who live nearby, though the company values meeting in person. If you live outside London and are asked to come in, Monzo supports you with the costs. The offices are most social on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays.
Remote roles at Monzo are UK-only. Most UK postings are listed as "Cardiff, London or Remote (UK)", and its engineering posting says engineers live everywhere in the UK, from Brighton to the Western Isles. Roles in Barcelona, Madrid and Dublin are office-located, and visa sponsorship is available for certain roles.
Monzo says it trusts people to work enough hours to do the job well, at times that suit them and their team. Customer operations roles are the exception and work set shifts. Engineering keeps meetings within core hours, and Monzo says it will make part-time working happen whenever it can.
Monzo offers 26 days' holiday plus bank holidays, or 34 days if you opt out of bank holidays. Everyone can also take 1 month of unpaid leave every year, and there are 8 weeks of paid sabbatical leave after every 5 years of service. Compassionate leave is 10 days as standard, with grief counselling.
Primary caregivers get 26 weeks at full pay, then 13 weeks at statutory maternity pay and 13 weeks unpaid, after 13 weeks of service. Secondary caregivers get 13 weeks at full pay plus 39 weeks unpaid. Monzo also offers up to 12 weeks of paid neonatal leave, up to 8 days of paid fertility treatment leave a year, up to 10 days of additional paid leave for pregnancy loss, and fertility and family-forming health education.
Salaries are reviewed every year, and an Incentive Award tied to performance can be paid as cash, equity or a mix. Monzo contributes 4% of base salary to your pension and matches additional contributions up to a maximum of 6%. Each employee gets a learning budget of 1,000 pounds a year for books, training courses and conferences, and at least one engineering posting publishes its salary range alongside the role's level. Monzo is also an accredited Living Wage employer.
