In this role, you'll help build scalable, intuitive, and performant Android products, collaborating with a cross-functional team that values ownership, pragmatic problem-solving, and clean engineering practices. We're looking for a mobile engineer who thrives in Kotlin, deep-dives into modern Android architecture and Jetpack Compose, and is passionate about delivering polished user experiences at scale.

Key Responsibilities:

• Translate product and design requirements into actionable technical tasks, owning feature delivery end-to-end through to production deployment.
• Architect, build, and maintain resilient, well-tested native Android applications in Kotlin.
• Design robust network layers, caching strategies, and offline-first workflows for seamless operation under varying network conditions.
• Integrate third-party SDKs, hardware capabilities, and RESTful or GraphQL APIs in close collaboration with backend engineering teams.
• Build modern, responsive UI interfaces using Jetpack Compose while maintaining high performance and smooth animation frame rates.
• Participate in technical design reviews, set Android engineering and testing standards, and leverage AI-assisted development tools throughout the development lifecycle.

Core Requirements:

• 7+ years of professional software engineering experience, with the vast majority dedicated to native Android development in production environments.
• Hands-on experience taking products from 0-1, taking greenfield concepts from initial setup through architecture and launch.
• Mastery of Kotlin, asynchronous programming with Kotlin Coroutines, and reactive state management using Flow.
• Deep understanding of Android architectural patterns (MVVM, MVI), Android Jetpack components, and dependency injection frameworks like Hilt or Dagger.
• Hands-on experience building pixel-perfect UIs with Jetpack Compose and Material Design guidelines.
• Proven track record of writing clean, testable code using JUnit, Mock, and Espresso or Compose Test.
• Familiarity with mobile CI/CD pipelines (e.g., Bitrise, GitHub Actions), automated app packaging, and Google Play Console deployment processes.
• AI-forward mindset with active use of AI-assisted development tools (e.g., Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot) to accelerate delivery.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English.
• Ability to work independently in a remote, fast-paced environment.
