About Catawiki

Catawiki was founded in 2008. It was originally designed as a website where collectors could manage and keep track of their collections online. Visitors can still add new items to the existing catalogue of collectibles. Unsurprisingly, the name Catawiki is a combination of the words ‘catalogue’ and ‘wiki’. In 2011, Catawiki began hosting weekly auctions in various categories, including art, antiques, classic cars, watches, jewellery, fashion, books, and stamps.

Position

Here at Catawiki, you will have a huge impact, working in a data-driven way to add value to the business along with the other 6 members of the Android team. You will add your own expertise to further grow our business, experiment and innovate the product. You’ll be adding new features to create an even greater experience for our users. As well as actively collaborating with your fellow Android Developers to take the codebase and the entire Android App to the next level. Our millions of users will thank you for that!

How we roll - Our Stack

Our codebase is primarily written in Java but we are strongly adopting Kotlin for our new features and refactorings. Our app uses MVVM as a general architecture, and we rely heavily on the reactive/functional paradigm using RxJava. We also make use of Android’s Architecture Components. We are using the most popular stuff like Dagger 2, Retrofit, data binding, as well as Mockito and Espresso for testing.
