## About the Role

* 5+ years of experience in Android mobile application development in a global organization
 * 2+ years of experience in mobile Architecting and responsible for designing robust Android native applications using Kotlin, Rx JAVA , Coroutines and Compose while ensuring security, performance, accessibility and reliability across the mobile ecosystem.

## Description

* Define clean architecture patterns and Android Jetpack based modular designs that promote separation of concerns, testability, maintainability and clear boundaries between presentation, domain and data layers.
 * Drive adoption of modern asynchronous and reactive patterns using Coroutines and Rx JAVA to improve app responsiveness, simplify concurrency handling and reduce issues related to threading and resource contention.
 * Optimize app performance by profiling startup time, memory usage, network calls and rendering pipelines, then implementing targeted improvements in Compose UI, data access and caching strategies.
 * Implement and review robust Android security controls covering secure storage, network encryption, authentication flows and protection against common mobile threats to safeguard sensitive data and user trust.
 * Establish comprehensive Android testing strategies including unit tests, instrumentation tests and UI tests, and integrate them within continuous integration pipelines to maintain high release quality and rapid feedback.
 * Collaborate with product, design and backend engineering to translate business requirements into Android focused technical solutions that balance usability, maintainability and long-term platform evolution.
 * Guide teams on effective use of Android Jetpack libraries for navigation, lifecycle management, dependency injection and data persistence to reduce boilerplate and align solutions with recommended platform practices.
 * Shape app distribution strategies through Play Store configuration, build variant management, feature flagging and phased rollout plans that minimize risk while enabling frequent and reliable releases.
 * Ensure Android accessibility best practices are embedded in Compose UI components, layouts and interactions so that applications remain inclusive, navigable and compliant for users with diverse abilities.
 * Provide structured debugging support for complex production issues by using profiling tools, logs and crash analytics, and translate findings into durable fixes that improve platform stability and customer experience.
 * Design and develop AI agents for vulnerability discovery, triage, root-cause analysis, and remediation across native mobile applications.
 * Build workflows that inspect source code, dependencies, platform configurations, and data flows to identify security weaknesses.
 * Enable agents to detect issues such as insecure data storage, sensitive informationexposure, weak cryptography, insecure network communication, and authentication or authorization flaws.
 * Integrate security scanning tools and their findings into agent workflows to improve detection accuracy and reduce false positives.
 * Enable agents to generate targeted fixes, create regression tests, run builds and security checks, and prepare pull requests with supporting evidence.
 * Collaborate with application security, architecture, mobile engineering, and QE teams to validate and improve agent behavior.
