Working at CreateFuture
CreateFuture is fast becoming the UK’s most recognisable digital consultancy, with years of experience building digital products and services for major organisations whilst putting our people first. We have offices in the centre of Edinburgh, Leeds, Manchester, and London as well as remote employees located throughout the country.
We are a team of creators - whether that’s code, project plans, go to market strategies, culture initiatives, marketing campaigns, large language models or people policies. And together, with our clients, we create the future. This has seen us collaborate and partner across a multitude of industries and sectors, with the likes of PayPal, adidas, Natwest, FanDuel and Money Saving Expert, to name just a few.
Our reputation as a partner determined to deliver high-quality, robust and thoughtful products has enabled us to scale to over 500 people in the last couple of years, and it is our amazing people - along with the safe, supportive and friendly culture we have built - that makes CreateFuture a great place to work. Don’t just take our word for it though, we have been recognised by Best Workplaces UK multiple years in a row - across a number of categories.
Join us on our journey… Let’s create something awesome, together, today.
About the role and team:
Our iOS and Android teams work simultaneously to bring similar but distinct experiences to our clients.
Our Android developers use Kotlin, Coroutines and the latest Jetpack libraries. As we continue we’re always looking to find and adopt the best tools for the job - whether that’s making our CI better with automated code scanning and UI testing or developing reusable libraries that we can share across projects.
We conduct unit testing across all our projects, code is always peer reviewed, and we encourage these reviews to happen “over the shoulder” (or on a call more recently) to make it a better environment for team members to learn from each other. As a team we meet regularly to discuss new approaches and challenges, whether that’s within our project teams or in the wider mobile community.
What you'll be doing:
- Building high-quality mobile apps with Kotlin Multiplatform (KMP), sharing business logic across Android and iOS
- Writing clean, maintainable, and well-tested code using Kotlin, Coroutines, and modern Android development practices
- Creating intuitive, responsive user interfaces with Jetpack Compose
- Working closely with designers, product owners, testers, and clients in a collaborative, agile environment
- Championing engineering excellence and best practices in both KMP and Android development
We'd love to talk to you if you are:
- Have strong experience in native Android development and are confident with the latest Android frameworks and tools
- Have hands-on experience with Kotlin Multiplatform (KMP) and understand how to architect shared codebases across platforms
- Care deeply about code quality, testing, and clean architecture principles
- Thrive in cross-functional teams and enjoy collaborating with others to build great products
- Are excited about the potential of KMP and passionate about pushing mobile development forward
At CreateFuture, we challenge ourselves to go beyond the obvious and we care deeply about our craft and customers. With us, you’ll have ambitious projects to sink your teeth into and plenty of opportunities to learn and grow. You’ll be part of our safe, supportive and friendly culture - that looks after you - and join our team of genuinely great people.
