See you @our Android team
Join AppUnite and become a member of our Android team!
Not only that, but you’ll also become part of one of our product teams. We’re organised in this way because we believe that this allows all our different kinds of teams to positively influence each other. Experiences we have while working for our clients can be transferred to other products via platform teams while accelerating our own individual development as well.
As an Android team, we care about ideas being spread among our members. We want the great practices, knowledge about tools and solutions worked out by one developer or product team to be passed along and adopted by other teams. However, we also want our product teams to have autonomy over the decisions they make because they are the ones who have the best context about their clients’ business needs.
Once you join us you’ll quickly familiarize yourself with the whole team thanks to the watercooler meetings we regularly have to keep in touch with each other.
How does our Android team work?
A lot depends on the team, but we do have some common practices that we follow:
Source code is analysed with linter (ktlint or detekt),
Any changes to the code are submitted via PRs,
Each PR has to be reviewed by at least one other developer,
We write both unit & UI tests,
We have CI/CD set up, that runs lint, unit and UI tests and deploys an application to distribution automatically,
We do pair programming / cross-project reviews from time to time,
Designs are well-prepared beforehand by professional designers,
Business functionalities are tested by our own QAs.
We’ll be more than happy if you:
Have deep knowledge of the Android ecosystem,
Have good knowledge of Kotlin and Android Jetpack libraries,
Understand various design patterns and app architectures,
Have knowledge about memory management, multi-threading and caching,
