Hire an Android Developer
Senior Kotlin engineer building native Android apps with Jetpack Compose, Material 3, Hilt, and modern architecture. Play Store veteran — from MVP to millions of installs.
Why Hire Me
What you get when you bring me onto your project.
Kotlin + Jetpack Compose
Compose-first UI with modern state management, side-effect APIs, animations, and navigation. No XML unless legacy demands it.
Clean Architecture
Hilt, Room, Retrofit, ViewModel, Repository pattern. Testable, layered, and ready for a team to grow into.
Coroutines + Flow Fluency
Structured concurrency, StateFlow/SharedFlow, error handling, cancellation. Reactive data pipelines that are easy to reason about.
Material Design 3
Dynamic color, adaptive layouts (phone, foldable, tablet, Wear OS, TV). Your app feels native on every Android form factor.
Security & Play Store Compliance
EncryptedSharedPreferences, SafetyNet/Play Integrity, ProGuard/R8, data safety forms, privacy sandbox readiness.
Play Console Operations
Staged rollouts, internal testing tracks, A/B experiments, Crashlytics, ANR monitoring. I ship and watch, not ship and pray.
Android Tech Stack
The tools, libraries, and patterns I use every day.
When to Hire Me
Common scenarios where clients bring me in.
Ship a Native Android App
Concept to Play Store in 6-12 weeks. Compose-first, clean architecture, production-ready from day one.
Legacy View to Compose Migration
Incremental migration from XML + Views to Jetpack Compose. Interop done right, no big-bang rewrite.
Java to Kotlin Migration
Modernize legacy Java codebases. Interop, gradual migration, and unlocking coroutines + Flow.
In-App Purchases & Subscriptions
Google Play Billing v6+, server-side receipt validation, paywalls, grace periods, offer management.
Performance & ANR Fix
Slow launch? ANR reports piling up? I profile with Perfetto + Macrobenchmark and fix the root cause.
Play Store Policy Rescue
Suspended app? Data safety form rejected? Policy violation email? I navigate the Play Console gauntlet.
My Process
From first call to launch — here is how we work together.
Discovery
Deep-dive call to understand your goals, users, and constraints. I ask the hard questions early so we ship the right thing.
Design & Architecture
Wireframes, data models, and tech stack locked in. You review and sign off before a single line of code.
Build
Iterative sprints with weekly demos. You always know what's shipping — no black box, no surprises at the end.
Test & Refine
Automated tests, device matrix, performance profiling. We catch issues before your users ever see them.
Launch & Support
App Store submission, deployment, monitoring. I stay available for fixes and iteration after go-live.
