About Salesforce

We’re Salesforce, the Customer Company, inspiring the future of business with AI+ Data +CRM. Leading with our core values, we help companies across every industry blaze new trails and connect with customers in a whole new way. And, we empower you to be a Trailblazer, too — driving your performance and career growth, charting new paths, and improving the state of the world.

The Android Developer Experience team builds the tools and infrastructure required to enable Android client development at Slack's ever-increasing scale. This team's ambitious mission is to make Slack the best place in the world to be an Android developer. You realize that every extra second a build takes is a second lost, that every reliably run test is another bug prevented, and that many of the tools needed to develop amazing Android applications still need to be dreamed up and built. You will create, support, and internally promote the tools and infrastructure that make the lives of Slack Android developers, and potentially the larger Android developer community, more pleasant and more productive.

Slack has a positive, diverse, and supportive culture—we look for people who are curious, inventive, and work to be a little better every single day. In our work together we aim to be smart, humble, hardworking and, above all, collaborative. If this sounds like a good fit for you, why not say hello?
