  • Work with backend, QA, product, and design teams to deliver releases on the Play Store and App Store.

Required Skills & Experience

Core Technologies

  • Strong proficiency in Kotlin, including coroutines, Flow, and sealed classes.

  • Hands-on experience with Jetpack Compose: state hoisting, recomposition optimization, side effects, and navigation.

  • Working knowledge of the iOS ecosystem: Xcode, Swift basics, CocoaPods/SPM, provisioning, and signing.

  • Strong understanding of MVVM / MVI and unidirectional data flow.

  • Dependency injection: Dagger Hilt on Android, and Koin or kotlin-inject in shared KMP modules.

Hybrid / Cross-Platform Experience

  • Experience delivering hybrid or cross-platform apps on both Android and iOS.

  • Ability to decide what belongs in shared code and what should stay native.

  • Experience bridging native platform APIs: camera, biometrics, NFC, push notifications, and deep links.

Technical Expertise

  • Networking with Ktor Client (KMP) and Retrofit/OkHttp (Android), including interceptors, auth token refresh, and error handling.

  • Serialization with kotlinx.serialization.

  • Offline storage with SQLDelight (KMP), Room, or DataStore.

  • Lifecycle-aware state management and process-death handling on Android, plus state restoration on iOS.

  • Responsive UI with window size classes and adaptive layouts.

Security (Payments Domain)

  • SSL/certificate pinning, encrypted local data, and secure handling of tokens and sessions.

  • Biometric authentication on Android (BiometricPrompt) and iOS (Face ID/Touch ID).

  • Awareness of obfuscation (R8/ProGuard), root/jailbreak detection, and PCI-DSS principles.

Development Practices

  • Clean code, SOLID principles, and modular Gradle architecture.

  • Git workflows: branching, PR reviews, and conventional commits.

  • Testing:

  • Unit tests with JUnit, kotlin.test, MockK, and Turbine for Flow.

  • UI tests with the Compose UI Test framework and XCTest.

  • Debugging and profiling with Android Studio Profiler, Xcode Instruments, and LeakCanary.

Nice to Have

  • CI/CD for mobile: GitHub Actions or Bitrise, Fastlane, and automated Play Store / TestFlight releases.

  • Experience with Flutter or React Native.

  • Native iOS development with SwiftUI.

  • Material Design 3 and Apple Human Interface Guidelines.

  • Crash reporting and analytics with Firebase Crashlytics or Sentry.

  • Experience with payment SDKs or gateways, QR payments, or wallet integrations.
