Ever built Android apps that actually feel fast, modern, and clean?
Comfortable jumping between Kotlin, backend services, and cloud-native systems without getting boxed into one layer? Want to work on secure, real-world systems where engineering quality genuinely matters?
This is a hands‑on engineering role across mobile, backend, and cloud. You’ll be building Android applications using Kotlin + Jetpack Compose, designing and shipping backend services in Rust, Python, or Go, and working with Docker, CI/CD pipelines, and cloud platforms (AWS/Azure) in a secure, high‑assurance environment.
You’ll be joining a defence team that values clean engineering, rapid iteration (including PoCs where requirements evolve fast), and strong collaboration through code reviews and Git-based workflows.
You’ll need experience with:
- Android development (Kotlin, Jetpack Compose)
- Backend development (Rust, Python or Go)
- Git and modern development workflows
- Docker + CI/CD pipelines
- API design (REST / OpenAPI)
- Working in secure or controlled environments
Nice to have:
- AWS or Azure experience
- Kubernetes
- Agile delivery experience
- Secure coding awareness
If you like building across the stack, solving real engineering problems, and working in an environment where the tech genuinely matters, this is one to look at.
