Responsibilities

We’re hiring an Android Applications Developer (Contractor) to build and ship Android applications for automotive infotainment systems. You will contribute to end-to-end software development for multi-brand OEM apps, integrate backend APIs that drive features, and help with test automation.

• Contribute to clean, testable architecture (MVVM/MVI, coroutines/Flow, DI with Hilt) and robust background work.
• Implement data/networking layers: consume backend APIs, caching (Room/SQLite), error handling, retries, and offline behavior.
• Use Git daily: feature branches, rebasing/merging, tags/releases; create well-scoped PRs and perform code reviews with clear, actionable feedback.
• Maintain CI/CD and test automation pipelines with basic quality gates (unit and instrumentation tests).
• Work with Android for Cars App Library templates (media, navigation, etc.) and host validation.
• Participate in the team’s agile development process: document architecture/ADRs, risks, and learnings.
• Responsible for technical ownership across multiple APKs, ensuring high-quality deliverables by maintaining rigorous standards for code coverage, linter compliance, and bug-free releases.

Requirements

• 6-10 years of Android application development in Java and Kotlin (Kotlin-first; strong Java interop)
• Solid programming fundamentals: object-oriented design, multithreading, memory management.
• Production-level Android development with coroutines/Flow, DI, background execution, and modern architecture (MVVM/MVI).
• Testing: unit (JUnit) and basic instrumentation tests; writes testable code and uses test doubles.
• AOSP/AAOS familiarity (platform concepts, in-vehicle constraints, template-driven HMI).
• Git proficiency in a team setting; PR workflows and code-review etiquette.
• Clear communication of trade-offs; operates autonomously with documented decisions; collaborates across teams.
• Comfortable with agile practices and tools (e.g., SAFe, Confluence, Jira).
• Working knowledge of software life-cycle methodologies and releasing production apps.

Nice to Have

• Familiarity with Jetpack Compose and modern Android UI patterns
• AIDL/Binder IPC, bound services, and multi-process patterns.
• Experience with Google Automotive Services (GAS) and/or Android for Cars App Library (templates, rotary/voice).
• CI/CD setup (GitHub Actions/Gradle) and deeper test automation
• Release engineering: Gradle configuration, build types/flavors, app signing, staged rollouts.

We Offer

• Remote work from Brazil
• Competitive compensation
• Opportunities for professional growth
• Collaborative and innovative work environment
