Senior Android Engineer

Every day, patients recovering from stroke open our app to do their therapy. They count on it being fast, accurate, and smooth — in a clinic waiting room, at home, sometimes with only one working hand.

nyra health builds the digital solutions that make neurological rehabilitation work outside clinic walls: myReha, the patient therapy app, and nyra insights, the clinician platform. 100+ clinics across DACH rely on both. We've raised €20M Series A and are scaling our team.

nyra's Android app is the primary interface between patients and their recovery. It runs ML-powered speech feedback in real time, serves hundreds of therapy exercises, and must stay rock-solid across clinic tablets from 2018 and the latest Pixels. You'll join a small, strong Android team with real ownership and a direct impact on the product.
What you'll work on

-
The therapy experience, end-to-end — you own the Android surface patients open every day as part of their recovery. Speech exercises, cognitive tasks, multimedia flows — you set the bar for how they feel, how fast they are, and how they grow.

-
ML in production — you're the bridge between our ML team's models and the patient's moment of use. You shape how speech feedback surfaces in the UI — latency, confidence, fallback states — so it feels instant and trustworthy.

-
Device performance — you own the performance envelope across older clinic tablets and modern phones: startup time, memory, jank, offline resilience.

-
Accessible product craft — partner with Product and Design on UI for users with partial mobility and cognitive load constraints

-
Engineering standards that scale — as one of the senior engineers on the Android team, you shape how the codebase grows. Architecture decisions, code review culture, testing strategy — what you establish now compounds as the team does.

Requirements
What sets you up
-
Strong track record on a scaling production app — you know what breaks under growth and how to prevent it

-
5+ years of professional Android development in Kotlin

-
Strong grasp of Jetpack Compose, Coroutines, Hilt/Dagger, and MVVM/MVI architecture

-
Quality-focused engineering — smooth animations, responsive UIs, and craftsmanship even in a clinical context

-
AI-native development — we use Claude Code, Cursor, and AI-generated tests as daily infrastructure, not occasionally — and you bring this experience.

-
Comfortable working cross-functionally with Product, Design, QA, and backend

-
HTL/Bachelor/Master's in CS or comparable hands-on experience

Nice to have: Firebase / NoSQL; multi-agent prompt chaining; performance profiling across device cohorts; offline-first sync strategies
You'll thrive here if…

-
You think about the end user — a patient relearning to speak after stroke — and let that guide technical decisions

-
Performance on constrained hardware is a problem you've solved before and enjoy solving

-
You balance clean architecture with shipping value fast, and know when to favour each

-
You want to be close to ML/AI work, not just consume it

Why nyra

Patients first, always — everything we build is measured by patient outcomes, not engagement metrics. You're shipping therapy, not features.

AI at the core — we integrate ML-powered speech recognition and therapy personalisation directly in the product. You'll work with the ML team, not just consume an API.

Direct access — founders, ML engineers, and practicing clinicians are in the same room. Decisions move fast and you're part of them.

AI-native culture — every engineer has Claude Pro and is expected to use AI tools daily. We're not experimenting; we've moved on.
