• Deploy and maintain applications on the Google Play Store, mastering continuous integration and delivery tools (CI/CD, Bitrise, Fastlane).

Requirements

• Holding a degree in IT, software engineering, or computer science.
• At least 3 years of successful hands-on experience in native Android mobile development.
• Perfect mastery of Kotlin and a solid understanding of the Android SDK and modern Android development practices (Android Jetpack components, and ideally Jetpack Compose).
• Highly comfortable with modern mobile software architectures (MVVM, Clean Architecture, MVI) and version control tools like Git.
• Strong sensitivity for UI/UX design and ergonomics, ensuring your interfaces strictly adhere to Google's Material Design guidelines.
• Excellent team spirit, curious, rigorous, and love sharing your technical discoveries with your peers.
