- Lead and own a significant stake in projects that have a direct impact on team goals from inception to launch
- Be active in code reviews and discussions to learn, share knowledge, and improve code quality
- Continuously learn and improve your technical and non-technical abilities
You have:
- 5+ years of experience building and shipping Android apps in Java/Kotlin

- Experience working with and consuming JSON and REST APIs
- Experience writing multithreaded and networked apps
- Experience in CI/CD and automating deployment tasks
- Solid Android UI-design principles and engineering patterns (i.e., MVVM)
