Helix AI Engineer, Android

Figure is an AI Robotics company developing a general purpose humanoid. Our humanoid robot is designed for commercial tasks and the home. We are based in San Jose and require 5 days/week in-office collaboration. It’s time to build. We're looking for a Senior Android Engineer with deep expertise in low-level Android systems, the NDK, and real-time sensor and video pipelines. This is not a standard Android app role — you'll be building the mobile application that interfaces directly with our custom sensor hardware over USB, ingests high-frequency camera and IMU data in real time, and runs on-device AI inference at the edge. If you've spent time below the Java/Kotlin layer — writing C/C++ via the NDK, implementing custom HALs, or building zero-copy sensor pipelines — this role was built for you. WHAT YOU'LL DO • Build and own the Android application t
