The Role
Develop and maintain modern Android applications using Kotlin and Jetpack Compose. Integrate BLE communication with hardware, build reusable architecture and libraries, optimize performance, write tests, and collaborate on feature delivery. The role also requires responsible use of AI coding tools for development, testing, documentation, and code review, including prompt engineering and context management. Experience with Android Jetpack, architectural patterns, dependency injection, networking libraries, background services, CI/CD, and cross-platform frameworks is valuable.
