Android engineers who've shipped real, published apps — not candidates with a portfolio of demo apps that never faced the Play Store or a production user base.
Quick Answer
MindHunt recruits Android developers for both modern Kotlin/Jetpack Compose development and legacy Java maintenance work. All individual-contributor Android hires run under our flat-fee subscription model, backed by a 90-day replacement guarantee. If Kotlin fluency specifically is the priority, our dedicated Kotlin page has deeper screening criteria.
Android app development for phones and tablets is built primarily in Kotlin today (with Java still common in legacy codebases), using Android's Jetpack libraries and, increasingly, Jetpack Compose for UI.
A lot of Android hiring today is really "which era of Android does this candidate actually know" — screening needs to catch candidates whose knowledge hasn't kept up with Compose.
Real Android experience means having dealt with the practical mess of different screen sizes, OS versions, and manufacturer customizations — not just building for one test device.
Review guidelines, staged rollouts, and crash-reporting triage are real parts of shipping an Android app that a demo-app portfolio doesn't demonstrate.
We don't keyword-match resumes for "Android." Every candidate goes through a structured technical screen before they reach your desk.
