• Build testable, maintainable code using Kotlin and Java.
• Leverage Android architecture components, ViewModel, LiveData/StateFlow, and coroutines.
• Leverage AI tools like GitHub Copilot, ChatGPT, Claude, and Cursor to speed up cycles and unblock yourself.
• Integrate and maintain services using Firestore; handle analytics with Amplitude; follow clean Git practices.
• Write unit tests and UI tests (Espresso) as part of development quality.
• Collaborate closely with product and design teams for fast, user-first execution.
  

Tech Stack You’ll Use

What We’re Looking For

Experience & Skill

• 3–4 years of experience in native Android app development
• Strong in Kotlin and Android app architecture (MVVM, Jetpack, XML)
• Comfortable working with Firestore, REST APIs, and Amplitude analytics
• Exposure to writing unit tests and Espresso UI tests
• Hands-on with Git and collaborative code reviews
• Curious and eager to use tools like Claude, Cursor, or Copilot to multiply your productivity
• "Will do anything" attitude — no ego, just execution.
• Experience integrating Google Play Billing / In-App Purchases.
• Experience with Kotlin Multiplatform Mobile (KMP) or cross-platform tools
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced, lean team where ownership is key
  

Mindset & Culture

• Fast learner and deeply curious — always exploring tools, frameworks, or tech trends
• Shows awareness or interest in AI-assisted dev (e.g., Cursor, Copilot, ChatGPT, etc.)
• Comfortable working in chaos — no fixed process, full ownership from Day 1
• Has worked in small engineering setups — not shielded in large dev teams
• Takes pride in building impactful features, not just writing code
• Handles tech disagreements with calm logic
• Thinks AI and automation are tools to scale judgment, especially in crunch times
  

Attitude & Ambition

• You want to grow from “just a dev” → a product engineer who can own features end-to-end
• You default to action — pick up unfinished tasks, unblock yourself, ask for clarity when stuck
• You see AI tools (Copilot, Cursor, Claude) as leverage, not novelty — and already use them
• You crave feedback loops — not for praise, but to level up fast
• You’d rather ship fast and improve daily, than spend 2 weeks debating folder structure
• You’re betting on yourself — and want to be around people doing the same
• You're ready to relocate to Hyderabad and be in-office with the team
  

Do Not Apply If You…

• Are looking for a comfort-first job — this role demands steep growth and self-initiation
• Need spoon-feeding or rigid specs to contribute meaningfully
• Aren’t actively curious about AI tools (Copilot, Cursor, Claude)
• Prefer siloed work and slow iteration cycles
• Aren’t excited to work in-office with a lean, high-context team in Hyderabad
