About the Role
AlphaSense has spent more than a decade helping professionals find, trust, and synthesize market intelligence. With SuperAnalyst, we are expanding that foundation into continuous, decision-ready execution: workflows that monitor change, update outputs, and surface what matters as situations evolve. Mobile is a critical part of that future because the moments that matter do not only happen when customers are sitting at a desktop.
Android is an important surface for that future because continuous, decision-ready workflows need to feel fast, secure, and reliable across phones, foldables, and managed enterprise environments.
