• Contribute to proof-of-concepts (POCs) that explore innovative mobile capabilities and customer engagement strategies.
• Develop personalization features that differentiate the app experience from the web.
• Implement and optimize push notification capabilities to drive engagement and upsell opportunities.
• Strengthen application stability by implementing unit tests and embedding automated quality checks within the CI/CD pipeline from the Android codebase.
• Participate in production incident management and provide technical leadership during issue resolution.
• Conduct thorough PR reviews, promote code quality standards, and ensure proper documentation.
• Leverage AI-assisted development tools (e.g., GitHub Copilot) to improve efficiency and elevate engineering practices.
• Stay current with Android ecosystem trends and proactively recommend improvements.

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or equivalent experience.
• 7+ years of hands-on Android development experience.
• 5+ years of Kotlin development experience.
• Strong experience with Jetpack Compose.
• Proven experience making architectural decisions within an existing Android application.
• Hands-on experience implementing MVVM and Clean Architecture principles.
• Experience integrating third-party SDKs and adding libraries within complex Android projects.
• Experience implementing REST API integrations and managing dependencies.
• Strong unit testing experience and experience improving application stability.
• Experience contributing to accessibility (ADA) improvements.
• Hands-on experience with Google Play Console, including publishing and maintaining Android applications.
• Experience working in Agile development environments.
• Must be authorized to work in the U.S. without sponsorship and able to convert to a full-time W-2 employee upon completion of the contract.

Technical Skills

• Kotlin, Android Studio, Jetpack Compose
• MVVM, Clean Architecture
• Hilt, Gradle
• JSON, REST APIs
• SDK & third-party library integration
