Android Developer to $4000

About the App:
We maintain a fully functional audio platform with audiobooks, playlists, and tracks. The app currently uses Jetpack Compose alongside  XML views, with a roadmap to fully migrate to Compose. It integrates Media3, Firebase, RevenueCat, and Google Play Billing.

Responsibilities:

• Maintain, upgrade, and refactor complex Android app architecture.
• Rewrite  XML-based UI to Jetpack Compose, ensuring modular, testable, and maintainable code.
• Implement and optimize audio playback, including Media3, MediaSession, background playback, media notifications and android auto.
• Handle networking, caching, and pagination with Retrofit, OkHttp, Room, and Paging.
• Integrate and maintain third-party SDKs like RevenueCat, Firebase, and Google Play Billing.
• Improve UI/UX using Material3, Glide, Coil, Compose animations, and custom components.
• Conduct code reviews, performance profiling, and memory optimizations.
• Enforce best practices in architecture and Kotlin coroutines.

Required Skills:

• 4+ years of Android development experience with Kotlin and Jetpack libraries.
• Strong knowledge of Jetpack Compose, including complex layouts, animations, and integration with existing XML Views.
• Deep understanding of audio playback and media session architecture.
• Experience with dependency injection (Koin, Dagger/Hilt optional).
• Advanced networking skills (Retrofit, OkHttp, REST APIs, caching, pagination).
• Proficiency with Room, Paging, WorkManager, and Lifecycle components.
• Solid understanding of in-app purchases, subscriptions, and Google Play Billing.
• Experience in profiling, memory management, and optimizing large Android apps.
• Familiarity with image/video libraries (Glide, Coil) and custom transformations.
• Comfortable refactoring legacy code and migrating apps to modern architectures.

Why Join Us:

• Work on a full-featured audio app with real content and users.
• Lead the migration from XML to Jetpack Compose.
• Use latest Android technologies and influence app architecture decisions.
