Android Reverse Engineer information

What is an Android Reverse Engineer job?

An Android Reverse Engineer analyzes and deconstructs Android applications to understand their functionality, security mechanisms, and potential vulnerabilities. They use tools like APK decompilers, debuggers, and dynamic analysis frameworks to reverse-engineer apps, often for security research, malware analysis, or software compatibility purposes. This role requires expertise in Android internals, Java, Kotlin, Smali, and ARM assembly, as well as knowledge of encryption and obfuscation techniques.

What are the typical day-to-day responsibilities of an Android Reverse Engineer?

On a typical day, an Android Reverse Engineer disassembles and analyzes Android applications or firmware to uncover vulnerabilities, understand app behavior, or verify code integrity. You may work closely with security teams, developers, and sometimes legal teams to ensure findings are communicated and remediation steps are implemented. Tasks can include static and dynamic analysis, malware detection, creating proof-of-concept exploits, and writing detailed technical reports. The role requires strong analytical focus, attention to detail, and a willingness to keep up with emerging threats and evolving mobile technologies.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in the Android Reverse Engineer position, and why are they important?

To thrive as an Android Reverse Engineer, you should possess a deep understanding of Android operating system internals, proficiency in programming languages like Java and C/C++, and hands-on experience with reverse engineering concepts and tools such as IDA Pro, Ghidra, or Apktool. Familiarity with ARM architecture, Android emulators, and security certifications like OSCP or GIAC GREM are common requirements in the field. Excellent analytical thinking, attention to detail, and strong problem-solving abilities help engineers tackle complex tasks and communicate findings clearly to stakeholders. These combined skills are essential for identifying vulnerabilities, securing applications, and ensuring compliance with security standards.

Job Role: Android Full-Stack Engineer

Job Location: Dearborn, MI

Job Description:

We are seeking an experienced Android Full-Stack Engineer to join our platform stability team. In this role, you will be responsible for diagnosing, debugging, and resolving complex Android stability issues spanning the entire Android stack—both above (System Partition) and below (Vendor Partition) the Treble boundary.

You will work deep within Android framework internals, reverse-engineering issues from source code, providing technical direction for ambiguous problems, and ensuring overall platform robustness across Android version upgrades.

This is a hands-on engineering role for someone who thrives on solving the hardest, least-understood problems in the Android ecosystem.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Design and develop middleware and Android background services for platform-level functionality
  • Debug and reverse-engineer complex issues directly from Android Open Source Project (AOSP) source code Own overall Android platform stability and reliability
  • Resolve Android upgrade and integration issues across releases
  • Diagnose and fix bugs in system_server components (Activity Manager, Window Manager, Package Manager, etc.), Car Service, and SurfaceFlinger
  • Investigate and resolve black screen, boot failure, and ANR (Application Not Responding) issues
  • Resolve and provide technical direction and root-cause analysis for unknown or hard-to-reproduce issues
  • Address and resolve compliance test failures across CTS, VTS, ATS, and STS

Skills Required:

  • Kotlin, C++, Java
  • Kotlin – Candidate should be able to write and maintain Kotlin-based Android background services and middleware components and be comfortable working within Kotlin code in the Android framework/system_server layer (e.g., modifying or extending services like Activity Manager, Package Manager) as part of resolving platform stability issues.
  • C++ – Candidate should have hands-on experience debugging and modifying native Android components (e.g., SurfaceFlinger, HAL layers, vendor partition code) in C++, including reverse-engineering issues directly from AOSP nativeopen source code.
  • Java – Candidate should be able to read, debug, and modify Java-based Android framework code (system_server internals such as Window Manager, Activity Manager) to diagnose and resolve issues like ANRs, boot failures, and black screens, including designing AIDL/Binder interfaces exposed to applications.

Experience Required:

  • 3+ years of hands-on Android platform/framework development experience.
  • Proven experience in designing and developing middleware and Android background services (long-running/foreground service) that expose feature-rich interfaces (AIDL/Binder, APIs) to applications.
  • Demonstrated track record of resolving complex, low-level Android stability issues.
  • Experience contributing to or modifying AOSP source code
  • Proven experience working across the full Android stack (framework, native services, vendor layers)

Experience Preferred:

  • Experience with Android Automotive OS (AAOS) and Car Service.
  • Familiarity with HAL (Hardware Abstraction Layer) and vendor integration.
  • Experience with CTS, VTS, ATS, and STS compliance frameworks.
  • Knowledge of Android graphics stack and display subsystems.
  • Experience with native debugging tools (gdb, lldb, perfetto, systrace, logcat analysis).
  • Familiarity with Android build systems (Soong/Make) and partition architecture.
  • Experience working with SoC/silicon vendors on platform bring-up

Education Required:

  • Bachelor's Degree

Education Preferred:

  • Master's Degree
