Who We Are
At OPENLANE we make wholesale easy so our customers can be more successful.
We’re a technology company building the world’s most advanced—and uncomplicated—digital marketplace for used vehicles.
We’re a data company helping customers buy and sell smarter with clear, actionable insights they can understand and use.
And we’re an innovation company accelerating the future of wholesale remarketing through curiosity, collaboration, and an entrepreneurial spirit.
Our Values
Driven Waybuilders. We pursue challenges that inspire us to build, create, and innovate.
Relentless Curiosity. We seek to understand and improve our customers’ experience.
Smart Risk-Taking. We transform risk into progress through data, experience, and intuition.
Fearless Ownership. We deliver what we promise and learn along the way.
We’re Looking For
We’re hiring AI-first Sr. Software Engineer (Android) to build, evolve, and scale OPENLANE’s digital marketplace mobile experiences.
These roles are for engineers who already treat AI as a first-class development tool, not a novelty. You’ll use AI to move faster, ship higher-quality software, and reduce operational and development toil, while still applying strong engineering judgment, ownership, and systems thinking.
You’ll work on customer-facing wholesale marketplace apps spanning seller and buyer experiences, partnering closely with Product, iOS, backend, and platform teams.
AI is an accelerator. Engineering ownership still matters.
Why OPENLANE

Be part of a major platform modernization and AI transformation
Use AI as a first-class development tool—not an experiment
Collaborate with experienced engineers, product leaders, and platform teams
Grow in an environment that values learning, ownership, and impact
You Are
AI-forward. You already use AI tools to enhance development speed, quality, and efficiency, and you continuously adapt as tooling evolves.
Product-minded. You think beyond code and understand how technical decisions impact customers and business outcomes.
Ownership-driven. You take responsibility for systems end-to-end, including reliability and operational health.
Technically curious. You enjoy learning new technologies and thoughtfully evaluating emerging approaches.
Quality-focused. You value clean, maintainable code, strong testing practices, and production-ready engineering standards.
You Bring
Core Engineering Skills
Experience building and operating production mobile applications at scale
Strong fundamentals: architecture, concurrency, networking, offline/edge cases, and app performance
Familiarity with CI/CD, code review, and production observability (crash reporting, analytics, release health)
End-to-end ownership of features from design collaboration through release and follow-up
AI-First Mindset

Raise the bar on testing (unit, UI, coverage) and CI gates; partner on Play / Firebase distribution and release hygiene
Use AI tools to accelerate delivery while mentoring Intermediate engineers on judgment and craft
Partner with iOS so product behavior stays aligned across platforms
How You’ll Use AI in This Role
AI-assisted coding and refactoring
AI-generated test coverage and validation
AI-supported debugging and root-cause analysis
AI-assisted documentation and knowledge sharing
Applying AI tools to reduce repetitive work and increase engineering leverage
Who You Will Work With
