Skills Required:
Kotlin – Fully leverages the modern Kotlin ecosystem to write type-safe, idiomatic code rather than treating the language as 'cleaner Java.' Confidently manages asynchronous architecture using Coroutines and Flows (SharedFlow/StateFlow) and naturally utilizes advanced language features like sealed classes and scope functions, Clean Code Architecture practices, command over jetpack compose components and MVVM architectural pattern.
Skills Preferred:
Java – Familiarity with modern Java and a solid grasp of Java-Kotlin interoperability, ensuring a smooth workflow when maintaining legacy Android codebases (e.g., older Activities, Services, or custom View groups). Should be comfortable bridging Java components with new Kotlin features, handling nullable annotations, and migrating legacy code to modern Kotlin standards where needed.
C++ – Basic comfort with modern C++ to read, maintain, or interface with low-level native libraries and HALs (Hardware Abstraction Layers). Ideally understands how to define and use Stable AIDL interfaces to handle safe, structured communication between native hardware layers and upper-level Kotlin/Java system services.
