Android Developer – Kotlin, Jetpack Compose | Contract | Outside IR35

I’m working with a client who is embarking on a full rewrite of their customer-facing mobile app – and they’re looking for an Android Developer to lead the way.

You’ll need strong, hands-on experience with Kotlin and Jetpack Compose, and ideally, you’ve already played a key role in rebuilding apps from the ground up. This is a Senior / SME-level role where your influence will stretch beyond writing code – the team will look to you for technical leadership, guidance on best practice, and mentoring throughout the project.

What You’ll Be Doing

Designing and developing white-label Android applications

Defining and implementing best practices for setting up new apps

Collaborating with stakeholders to understand and shape requirements

Offering hands-on mentorship and technical direction to the wider dev team

What We’re Looking For

Deep experience as an Android Developer with a strong grasp of Android app architecture and UI design principles

Excellent Kotlin skills, including use of Flows, extensions, and higher-order functions

Proven Jetpack Compose experience, with strong knowledge of Jetpack libraries

Previous experience in greenfield/rebuild projects from scratch

Confident troubleshooting and performance optimisation skills

Experience with RESTful APIs, TDD, Unit Testing and Automation

Agile (SCRUM) background

Solid DevOps knowledge: CI/CD with Git and Azure DevOps

Comfortable in fast-paced, collaborative environments
