Associate Software Engineer - Consumer

Sandisk understands how people and businesses consume data and we relentlessly innovate to deliver solutions that enable today’s needs and tomorrow’s next big ideas. With a rich history of groundbreaking innovations in Flash and advanced memory technologies, our solutions have become the beating heart of the digital world we’re living in and that we have the power to shape.

Sandisk meets people and businesses at the intersection of their aspirations and the moment, enabling them to keep moving and pushing possibility forward. We do this through the balance of our powerhouse manufacturing capabilities and our industry-leading portfolio of products that are recognized globally for innovation, performance and quality.

Sandisk has two facilities recognized by the World Economic Forum as part of the Global Lighthouse Network for advanced 4IR innovations. These facilities were also recognized as Sustainability Lighthouses for breakthroughs in efficient operations. With our global reach, we ensure the global supply chain has access to the Flash memory it needs to keep our world moving forward.

Sandisk builds the storage products that hold the world’s most important data: the photos on your phone, the footage on professional film sets, everything in between. Our consumer companion app, built in Flutter, is how millions of people manage their Sandisk drives, cards, and SSDs. We’re hiring an AI-native junior developer to join that team and help us ship faster than anyone expects a junior to ship.

The Role This is a junior role with a non-traditional bet behind it. We believe an engineer who is genuinely AI-native, someone who has internalized Claude Code, Cursor, agentic workflows, and modern AI tooling as a core part of how they write software, can contribute meaningfully on day one, even without prior Flutter experience. You don’t need to know Dart yet.

You need to know how to learn fast, ship carefully, and use AI tools the way a senior engineer uses their IDE. New college grads are welcome. What matters is evidence, not credentials, that AI tools are how you actually build. You’ll be paired with senior Flutter developers who will mentor you on the codebase and the craft. In return, we expect you to help raise the whole team’s AI tooling fluency.

• Ship features and bug fixes in the Sandisk consumer Flutter app, with senior engineers reviewing your work
• Use AI coding agents as a daily driver: exploration, scaffolding, refactoring, test generation, and learning the codebase
• Write clear specs and prompts. Treat prompt engineering as a real engineering skill, not a party trick
  - Verify what AI tools produce. Read the diff, run the tests, and understand every line you commit before it goes up for review
• Ramp on Flutter, Dart, and the team’s architecture quickly, with senior support and AI-assisted learning
  - Share what you learn by bringing new AI workflows, MCP servers, custom agents, and tooling tricks back to the team
• Take ownership of the boring-but-important work that AI tools make tractable for a junior: test coverage, refactors, documentation, and dependency hygiene

Required:

• Bachelor's degree in Math, Computer Science, Physics or related degree
• Demonstrable evidence you are AI-native: side projects, shipped work, or workflows that clearly show AI tools are how you build, not a novelty you've tried
• Healthy skepticism of AI output: you verify, test, and read code before trusting it, and you know when the model is bluffing
• A clear, considered point of view on where AI-assisted development is going and why, and the ability to defend it in conversation
• Solid programming fundamentals in at least one modern language. You can read code, reason…
