This role offers the opportunity to influence the future of Android engineering for a major, high-traffic consumer application. If you’re passionate about Kotlin architecture, mobile scalability, and exploring hybrid delivery models, this role places you at the centre of an ambitious mobile evolution programme.

We’re seeking an experienced Android Specialist to guide Android teams as they enhance delivery velocity, improve modularity, and evaluate hybrid options. You will provide senior technical leadership, advise on architectural strategy, and embed directly with engineering teams to accelerate parallel feature development.

The Impact You’ll Make
  • Lead the technical architecture of a large-scale Kotlin-based Android application.
  • Evaluate hybrid delivery options, including integrating React Native or Web View-based experiences into native flows.
  • Identify architectural simplifications that reduce complexity and speed up delivery.
  • Collaborate with iOS leadership to ensure platform parity and alignment.
  • Support teams in modularising features and clarifying appropriate distribution of client-side logic.
  • Partner closely with product and engineering groups to ensure compatibility with evolving API and BFF designs.
  • Mentor Android engineers and promote best practices in Kotlin development.
  • Troubleshoot complex performance, stability, or integration issues.
Qualifications
  • 8+ years of Android development experience with strong expertise in Kotlin.
  • Proven ability to architect and scale high-traffic, consumer-facing Android apps.
  • Experience evaluating or integrating hybrid frameworks such as React Native.
  • Deep understanding of the Android SDK, lifecycle management, concurrency, and performance tuning.
  • Familiarity with Gradle and how architecture influences build and release pipelines.
  • Ability to read or maintain legacy Java code.
Bonus Points
  • Experience integrating Kotlin with hybrid technologies like React Native.
  • Experience building modularised Android architectures.
  • Exposure to enterprise-scale retail or transactional systems.
  • Strong platform alignment instincts working closely with iOS teams.
What You’ll Bring to Us
  • Ability to shape Android technical strategy and influence cross-team decisions.
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder engagement skills.
  • Pragmatic problem-solving grounded in real-world engineering constraints.
  • Collaborative mindset and willingness to mentor teams.
  • Forward-looking perspective on hybrid technologies and architectural modernisation.
