Flutter Engineer (Android Specialist)

The Role

We are looking for a skilled and passionate Flutter Engineer with a strong background in native Android development. You will be a key member of our agile team, responsible for developing and maintaining our core Flutter application.

This is not a typical Flutter role. We need a "full-stack" mobile engineer who is comfortable writing beautiful, high-performance Dart code but is also not afraid to dive deep into the native Android (Kotlin/Java) layer to build custom platform integrations, optimize performance, and manage hardware communication. You will be a critical bridge between the cross-platform world of Flutter and the device-specific power of Android.

Key Responsibilities

• Flutter Development: Design, build, and maintain high-quality, reusable, and performant code for our Flutter application using Dart.
• Native Android Integration: Develop and maintain platform-specific features, background services, and optimizations using Kotlin and/or Java.
• Platform Channels: Implement and manage the communication between Flutter and native Android code using platform channels (MethodChannel, EventChannel, etc.).
• Hardware Communication: (If applicable, e.g., for Spandan) Work with native Android APIs (like Bluetooth Low Energy/BLE) to ensure robust and reliable communication with our connected hardware devices.
• Collaboration: Work in close collaboration with our Product and Design teams within our dual-track agile workflow, participating in both Discovery (prototyping, feasibility checks) and Delivery (sprint execution).
• Quality & Testing: Write clean, maintainable code and ensure its quality by writing unit, widget, and integration tests.
• Code Reviews: Participate in our team's code review process, providing and receiving constructive feedback to maintain our high-quality bar.
• Git Workflow: Adhere to our established Git workflow (master/develop/release branches) for all development, ensuring code is clean, documented, and properly merged.
• App Lifecycle Management: Manage the full Android app lifecycle, including profiling for performance, managing app size, and ensuring compatibility across a wide range of Android devices.

Required Skills & Qualifications (Must-Haves)

• 3+ years of professional experience in mobile application development.
• 2+ years of hands-on, professional experience building, shipping, and maintaining production-quality apps with Flutter & Dart.
• Strong, proven experience with native Android development (Kotlin/Java). You must be comfortable opening Android Studio for native work.
• Demonstrable experience with Android-specific features (e.g., Background Services, Broadcast Receivers, Permissions, and the Android Activity Lifecycle).
• Experience with Flutter Platform Channels and a deep understanding of how to bridge Flutter to native code.
• Proficiency with REST APIs, JSON, and asynchronous data handling.
• Solid understanding of modern Git workflows and version control best practices.
• A strong portfolio with at least one or two apps published on the Google Play Store that we can review.

Preferred Qualifications (Nice-to-Haves)

• Expertise in a modern state management pattern (e.g., BLoC, Riverpod, or Provider).
• Experience with Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) on Android.
• Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines (e.g., GitHub Actions, Code magic, Bitrise) for automated building and deployment.
• Experience with Jira, Confluence and agile process.
• Knowledge of Android performance profiling tools (e.g., Android Studio Profiler, Perfetto).
