Fanatics is building a leading global digital sports platform. We ignite the passions of global sports fans and maximize the presence and reach for our hundreds of sports partners globally by offering products and services across Fanatics Commerce, Fanatics Collectibles, and Fanatics Betting & Gaming, allowing sports fans to Buy, Collect, and Bet. Through the Fanatics platform, sports fans can buy licensed fan gear, jerseys, lifestyle and streetwear products, headwear, and hardgoods; collect physical and digital trading cards, sports memorabilia, and other digital assets; and bet as the company builds its Sportsbook and iGaming platform. Fanatics has an established database of over 100 million global sports fans; a global partner network with approximately 900 sports properties, including major national and international professional sports leagues, players associations, teams, colleges, college conferences and retail partners, 2,500 athletes and celebrities, and 200 exclusive athletes; and over 2,000 retail locations, including its Lids retail stores. Our more than 22,000 employees are committed to relentlessly enhancing the fan experience and delighting sports fans globally.
About the Company
Fanatics Collectibles is a new company operating at the intersection of collectibles, culture, and technology. Backed by world-class investors, operators, and sports & entertainment partners, we are building the global leader in next-generation collectibles. As part of the broader Fanatics ecosystem, we leverage a digital sports platform that spans over 900 sports properties and engages more than 81 million fans. Together, we are reimagining every part of the collectibles experience for fans, partners, and creators.
The Role
You'll join the Unified Experience team — the group responsible for building seamless collector journeys across Fanatics Live, Marketplace, Instant Rips, Collections, Topps, and future experiences.
This is the Android seat on that team, and it's a systems role as much as a feature role. You'll own the shared Android foundation that multiple apps and multiple feature teams depend on: common identity and session handling, shared Compose components and modules, consistent navigation and deep linking between surfaces, and the migration paths that get us from where each app is today to where the unified experience needs it to be. When you get it right, four teams ship faster and collectors stop noticing the seams.
The Android stack is modern by design: Kotlin and Jetpack Compose throughout, Coroutines and Flow for concurrency and state, a unidirectional architecture with a strict state contract, GraphQL against our backend, and a modular multi-module Gradle codebase with automated build and release pipelines. No legacy View-system app hiding under the surface — you'll be working in a codebase you can be proud of.
AI tooling is part of how we work. We expect engineers to use it on the job, give it good context, and verify the output — not just accept it.
- Design and ship shared Android foundations — reusable modules, Compose components, and internal libraries — that multiple collector-facing apps depend on, and treat the engineers consuming them as first-class customers.
- Own unified identity, session, and entitlement flows across surfaces, so a collector signs in once and moves between Live, Instant Rips, Marketplace, and Collections without friction.
- Lead migrations and consolidations against live users: persistence and data model changes, deprecating divergent implementations, and phased rollouts that don't break anyone mid-flow.
- Own features end to end — API contracts, state and effect handling, Compose UI, testing, and release.
- Build deep linking, navigation, and cross-surface handoffs that make separate products behave like one.
- Write genuine test coverage: unit tests with fake dependencies, Flow and coroutine test patterns, Compose UI tests where they earn their keep — not coverage theater.
- Instrument what you ship and watch it in production: event tracking, feature flags, staged Play Store rollouts, crash and ANR triage, and monitoring you actually check after launch.
- Own Android performance where users feel it: startup time, jank in scrolling and animation-heavy surfaces, memory under sustained real-time load.
- Review pull requests with judgment: surface real defects, prioritize what matters, coach on what to let go.
- Contribute to architectural decisions: modularization strategy, state management, effect handling, failure handling.
- Mentor engineers earlier in their career and raise the quality bar across the team.
What We're Looking For
- 5+ years building consumer-facing Android applications at scale.
- Kotlin — coroutines, structured concurrency, Flow, and a working understanding of where each belongs.
- Jetpack Compose — state hoisting, recomposition and stability, performance-aware composition, Compose Navigation.
- Unidirectional state management at scale — MVI or a comparable strict, testable architecture (Molecule, Orbit, Mavericks, or a well-reasoned in-house pattern) that you can explain and defend.
- Multi-module Gradle architecture — clean module boundaries, convention plugins, version catalogs, build times you've actively fought for.
- Shared architecture across multiple apps — you've built reusable modules, SDKs, or internal libraries consumed by more than one app or more than one team, and you understand the API-stability and versioning discipline that requires.
- Dependency injection — Hilt, Dagger, Koin, or equivalent, used deliberately rather than by habit.
- GraphQL on Android — Apollo Kotlin, schema-driven development, codegen, subscriptions.
- CI/CD — Bitrise, GitHub Actions, Fastlane, or equivalent automated build/test/release pipelines feeding the Play Console.
- Testing discipline — JUnit, Turbine, Robolectric, Compose testing, and instrumentation tests, with real assertions.
- Static analysis — ktlint, detekt, or equivalent quality gates.
- Hands-on with AI-assisted development tooling — Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, or similar — with a track record of using it for real work, not demos.
- Structured commit/PR discipline tied to a project tracker (Linear, Jira, or equivalent).
- Comfortable working across team boundaries — this role depends on influence with engineers you don't manage.
Bonus Points
- Experience with livestreaming, real-time auctions, or high-throughput WebSocket/subscription workloads.
- Baseline Profiles, Macrobenchmark, or other systematic Android performance work.
- Exposure to marketplace or e-commerce Android applications.
- Payments, billing, or Play Billing experience.
- Developer tooling or internal platform work that measurably saved other engineers time.
- Passion for sports cards, collectibles, or live commerce.

Search Android Engineer Jobs in New YorkAndroid Engineer Jobs in New York: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies sponsor visas for android engineers in New York?
Large technology and financial services firms are the most consistent sponsors. Google, Amazon, Meta, JPMorgan Chase, Bloomberg, and Goldman Sachs all have significant engineering operations in New York and have documented histories of sponsoring H-1B visas for mobile engineers. Mid-size product companies and fintech startups in Manhattan and Brooklyn also sponsor, though less predictably than established enterprises.
Which visa types are most common for android engineer roles in New York?
The H-1B is the most common visa category for android engineers in New York, as the role qualifies as a specialty occupation requiring a bachelor's degree or higher in computer science or a related field. Candidates already in the U.S. on F-1 OPT or STEM OPT can work before H-1B status begins. The O-1A is an option for engineers with demonstrated extraordinary achievement, though it applies to a much smaller subset of applicants.
Which cities in New York have the most android engineer sponsorship jobs?
New York City accounts for the overwhelming majority of android engineer sponsorship jobs in the state, particularly Manhattan's Midtown and Hudson Yards corridors and the Brooklyn Tech Triangle near DUMBO and Downtown Brooklyn. Albany and Buffalo have smaller but growing tech sectors, though sponsored mobile engineering roles there are considerably rarer than in the metro area.
How to find android engineer visa sponsorship jobs in New York?
Migrate Mate filters android engineer jobs specifically by visa sponsorship availability, so you can browse New York roles without sorting through positions that won't support international candidates. The platform focuses on employers with verified sponsorship histories, which is particularly useful in New York where the volume of postings makes it difficult to identify which companies will actually file an H-1B petition for mobile engineering roles.
Are there any state-specific considerations for android engineers seeking sponsorship in New York?
New York's Department of Labor prevailing wage requirements apply alongside federal DOL standards, and employers must meet the higher of the two when filing a Labor Condition Application. The density of H-1B-dependent employers in the financial services and consulting sectors means some New York firms face additional attestation requirements. Engineering candidates coming through New York university programs, including Columbia and NYU, often have existing relationships with local sponsors through campus recruiting pipelines.
What is the prevailing wage for sponsored android engineer jobs in New York?
U.S. employers sponsoring a visa must pay at least the prevailing wage, which is what workers in the same role, area, and experience level typically earn. The Department of Labor sets this rate to make sure companies aren't hiring foreign workers simply because they'd accept lower pay than a U.S. worker. It varies by job title, location, and experience. You can look up current prevailing wage rates for any occupation and location using the OFLC Wage Search page.
