Android Developer - Kotlin, Jetpack Compose | Contract | Outside IR35
I'm working with a client who is embarking on a full rewrite of their customer-facing mobile app - and they're looking for an Android Developer to lead the way.
You'll need strong, hands-on experience with Kotlin and Jetpack Compose, and ideally, you've already played a key role in rebuilding apps from the ground up. This is a Senior/SME-level role where your influence will stretch beyond writing code - the team will look to you for technical leadership, guidance on best practice, and mentoring throughout the project.
What you'll be doing:
-
Designing and developing white-label Android applications
-
Defining and implementing best practices for setting up new apps
-
Collaborating with stakeholders to understand and shape requirements
-
Offering hands-on mentorship and technical direction to the wider dev team
What we're looking for:
-
Deep experience as an Android Developer with a strong grasp of Android app architecture and UI design principles
-
Excellent Kotlin skills, including use of Flows, extensions, and higher-order functions
-
Proven Jetpack Compose experience, with strong knowledge of Jetpack libraries
-
Previous experience in greenfield/rebuild projects from scratch
-
Confident troubleshooting and performance optimisation skills
-
Experience with RESTful APIs, TDD, Unit Testing and Automation
-
Agile (SCRUM) background
-
Solid DevOps knowledge: CI/CD with Git and Azure DevOps
-
Comfortable in fast-paced, collaborative environments
