We are looking for an Android Foundations Developer who understands the building blocks of modern Android development. Your role is to create a rock solid base for our mobile application, ensuring the architecture, navigation, UI components, lifecycle management and core modules are implemented correctly from day one.
The ideal candidate must understand how Android apps behave behind the scenes, how screens communicate, how data flows through the app, how memory is managed and how to design an application that remains stable even as features grow. A strong command of Kotlin, Jetpack components, lifecycle events, XML or Compose based UI, navigation graphs and basic data storage is essential.
This project requires someone who is confident in setting up clean architecture layers, structuring packages, defining reusable components, writing maintainable UI layouts and handling device configurations like orientation changes and various screen sizes. You will work closely with designers and backend developers to ensure the foundation matches long term plans.
If you enjoy building strong app bases, enforcing structure and ensuring every future feature is easy to implement, this project is perfect for you.
