• Bring AI capabilities to the native side where they make sense, using technologies such as ML Kit, on-device models with LiteRT, Gemini Nano through AICore, and Android speech and camera APIs
• Design and evolve maintainable Android architectures, reusable components and clear boundaries between native and Flutter layers
• Debug and resolve Android-specific production issues such as crashes, ANRs, memory leaks, performance regressions, networking problems and Flutter engine behavior on Android
• Profile and optimize app startup time, memory usage, rendering performance, battery usage and responsiveness using Android Studio Profiler and production monitoring tools
• Ensure our apps run reliably across the Android device ecosystem, including different OEMs, OS versions, screen sizes, tablets and foldables
• Improve engineering practices around testing, code review, CI/CD, release processes and mobile observability
• Act as the team's Android mentor by reviewing native code, writing internal guidelines, running knowledge-sharing sessions and helping our Flutter developers become confident on Android
• Keep a close eye on Android platform updates and Google Play requirements, such as target SDK deadlines and platform policy changes, and turn relevant developments into concrete technical and product proposals

• At least 5 years of professional Android development experience, including apps you have shipped and maintained in production on Google Play.
• Strong proficiency in Kotlin and hands-on production experience with Jetpack Compose
• Strong knowledge of Android application architecture, application and process lifecycle, modular design and platform APIs.
• Strong knowledge of the Android platform beyond the main app, including app widgets, services, WorkManager, push notifications, Google Play Billing, permissions and background execution.
• A solid understanding of Kotlin Coroutines, Flow, structured concurrency and thread safety.
• Strong understanding of Android memory management, lifecycle-related leaks and performance profiling.
• Comfortable using Android Studio Profiler, Perfetto and production diagnostics to identify and resolve performance, memory and ANR issues.
• Hands-on experience with Gradle configuration, dependency management, app signing, CI/CD and the full Google Play release process.
• Experience connecting native Android code with a cross-platform framework, or a strong willingness to learn Flutter.
• Familiarity with iOS and Swift is a plus.
• Experience working with Java or legacy Android codebases is a plus.
• Experience with Wear OS, Android TV or other Android form factors is a plus.
• Experience with Firebase, crash reporting, analytics, Play Integrity or mobile observability tools is a plus.
