Senior Android Developer (remote)

Birmarket is the largest marketplace in Azerbaijan, successfully operating for over five years. Every day, we provide customers with modern online services and make online shopping as convenient and seamless as possible. Our customer and partner base is growing rapidly, strengthening our leadership in the market. Now we’re looking for a Senior Android Developer (remote) to join our Core Platform team — a technical, architecture-focused group, not a product feature team. Here, you won’t just ship features — you’ll help shape the performance, stability, and architectural vision of our app.

This role is all about deep platform work: refactoring, performance improvements, modernizing architecture, and implementing new patterns like Jetpack Compose across the app.

What You’ll Be Working On

• Dive deep into core Android architecture and improve system-level performance

• Optimize app cold/hot startup times and screen rendering speed

• Migrate legacy UI components to Jetpack Compose

• Refactor and modernize 7+ years of codebase (yes, there’s legacy)

• Manage memory usage, improve responsiveness and reduce technical debt

• Collaborate closely with tech leads and QA teams on architectural and implementation decisions

4+ years of commercial Android development experience

• Strong Kotlin skills; • Deep hands-on experience with Jetpack Compose, especially:

- State management, side-effects, recomposition control, custom composables

• Solid experience with Navigation Component (including nested graphs, deep links)

• Experience with local data storage: - Room (DAO/migrations), DataStore (preferences/proto)

• Architectural understanding:

- MVVM and MVI (e.g., TEA, Redux-style), clean layered architectures, modularization

• Confident with multithreading using coroutines (Flow, scopes, dispatchers, cancellation)

• Familiarity with analytics integration (Firebase, Facebook Analytics, AppsFlyer)

• Proficiency with Git and standard workflows (feature branches, rebase, code reviews, CI/CD

Challenges You Might Face

• Limited documentation — but a lot of tests to guide you

• Refactoring will be gradual and careful — performance and stability are top priorities

Team: 3 Android developers, Practice Lead, Tech Lead, Manual QA + Automation QA Flat structure, collaborative decision-making, strong engineering focus.
