DO YOU HAVE THE RIGHT INGREDIENTS*? (REQUIREMENTS): * 3+ years of Android application development experience. * Clear written and verbal communication * Proficient in a modern object-oriented programming language such as Java or Kotlin. * Experience with standard Android architecture patterns & libraries such as Hilt, AndroidX libraries, and Kotlin Coroutines. * Experience triaging issues with Android tools such as adb and logcat. * Proficiency with source control and code review tools such as Git, Gerrit, or GitHub. BONUS INGREDIENTS*: * Experience writing automated tests using Robot, UIAutomator or other testing frameworks. * Familiarity with AI-augmented development workflows and tools (e.g., Claude Code, Codex, or similar). * Experience with the Android framework, system services, or system apps written in Kotlin or Java. * Understanding of mobile device management (MDM) concepts and enterprise device management platforms.
