- Strong understanding of asynchronous programming (Coroutines, Flow).
- Familiarity with REST or gRPC APIs and structured data formats.
- Strong debugging and performance profiling skills.
- Comfort building in environments with latency, partial failure, and non-deterministic behavior.
- Experience with MLKit or light on-device inference.
