This role is a work from home position. Candidates can be located anywhere in the domestic US.

  • Participate in code reviews, wireframe designs and proof of concepts
  • Work with QA team in analyzing and resolving production issues and defects.
  • Work with the team in app deployment activities
  • Participate in the full Software Development Life Cycle (Agile), including meetings, iterative development, estimations and design sessions
  • Work closely with Product Managers, Software Engineers, Operations, and Quality Assurance Engineers in a collaborative environment to provide quality software and solutions.


  • What We Seek….
  • Bachelor’s degree or advanced degree in Computer Science/Engineering or equivalent work experience.
  • 3+ years with deep understanding of Android UX and UI design paradigms, and ability to implement and design Android apps
  • 5+ years of broad knowledge of Java, Eclipse and other IDE tools
  • Experience integrating with RESTful API backends
  • Experience with Unit Testing on the Android Platform
  • Ability and desire to thrive in a proactive, high-pressure, client-services, environment.


  • Desired Skills
  • Experience with Android NDK (Native Development Kit)
  • Experience with Android PDK (Platform Development Kit)
  • Experience with AOSP (Android Open Source Project)
  • Experience writing shared services for the Android Platform


  • Who is Leaf? We’re a three year-old rapidly growing tech company on a mission to disrupt the mobile payments space. We are a diverse, passionate, and ambitious team from around the world helping small business owners across the nation fight against the giants. We have offices in Boston and New York. Our US headquarters are located near Kendall Sq/MIT in Massachusetts (T-friendly!), the leading hub of innovation and technology.

    Leaf is a cloud business management platform helping small merchants better run and grow their businesses. We believe that technology can (and should) enhance the customer experience, and learning from data is the best way to grow a small business.

    What we offer?
  • Relaxed atmosphere (shorts and sandals are OK with us)
  • Competitive compensation, generous paid time off program, and rich benefits including 401(K)
  • Fringe Benefit Pool to use towards company-approved benefits: transportation, gym discount, etc.
  • Choose your own laptop (hint: we like Apple products)
  • Flexible work times – the number of hours sitting in a chair does not equal productivity.


  • This employer participates in E-Verify. The employer will provide the Social Security Administration (SSA) and, if necessary, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) with information from each new employee's I-9 to confirm work authorization.

    We are an Equal Opportunity Employer looking for the best talent to join our team and help us build an amazing product, culture and company.
