HIRE DEVELOPERS  /  ANDROID APP DEVELOPERS

Hire Android appdevelopers,on your team.

Senior Android engineers who join your team, write Kotlin and Jetpack Compose in your codebase and your CI, and sit in your standups. We screen for the part a CV can't show: real-device fragmentation, Play policy, and low-RAM hardware. Kotlin syntax on its own doesn't cover Android, and it isn't what we hire for.

Why Entalogics

Why teams hire
Android app developers from us.

Kotlin with Jetpack Compose for new work, Java maintained where it already exists. Then everything beyond the language: MVVM, Clean Architecture, and the Jetpack components an Android engineer has to already know, like Room, WorkManager, Navigation, and Flow.

EXPERT BENCH01

Android developers, vetted for depth.

Jetpack Compose and XML Views, coroutines and Flow, Hilt, Room, and testing on real Samsung, Xiaomi, and Pixel hardware. We check for Android platform experience, not just whether someone can write Kotlin.

FAST HIRING02

Kotlin is the easy part.

Plenty of people list Kotlin on a CV. Far fewer have chased an ANR on a budget Xiaomi phone, dealt with Google Play policy enforcement, or made an app run well on low-RAM hardware. Those are the people we keep on the bench.

FLEXIBLE ENGAGEMENT03

As much engineer as you need.

A full-time Android developer for a product that's the business. A part-time one for Play Store maintenance and OS updates. A few hours for a Compose migration plan or a policy rejection. You tell us which, and we size it that way.

Receipts, not adjectives.

Hiring model

Three ways
to staff your Android build.

Quoted per engineer per month, or as a 40-hour block, on the first call. Device fragmentation, screen densities, manufacturer-specific bugs, background restrictions, Google Play policy changes. Android is harder than it looks, and those are the things we screen for.

M01160h / mo

Full-time hiring

One Android developer working full-time inside your team, owning the architecture and the Compose UI through backend integration and Google Play releases. The right fit when the Android app is a core product for the long term.

Contact us for pricing
M0280h / mo

Part-time hiring

Twenty hours a week. Enough for Android version updates, Crashlytics reports, features between releases, and keeping the Play Console listing current.

Contact us for pricing
M0340h blocks

Hourly hiring

For a defined piece of work. A Play Store policy rejection, a Jetpack Compose migration plan, a performance profile on low-end devices, or an architecture review before a new Android project starts.

Who runs
the engineers.

Pick the one that matches how your team already builds Android apps, or describe your setup and we'll suggest one.

01

Entalogics managed team

We run the whole thing: architecture, Kotlin development, testing on real devices, and Google Play submission. You review a build every week through Play Console internal testing.

  • PM + senior Android devs on staff
  • We own the release pipeline
  • Internal test builds every Friday
02MOST COMMON

Client managed team

Your product lead sets the direction. Our Android developer joins your Slack, your Jira, and your standups, writes the Kotlin, and manages Play Console. You steer.

  • Embedded in your Slack & Linear
  • Reports into your engineering lead
  • Same hiring bar — you direct
03

Hybrid model

Your team keeps the product decisions and the backend. We take the Compose UI, device testing across manufacturers, Play Store compliance, and release management.

  • Specialists from us, generalists from you
  • Shared standups + code reviews
  • Clear DRI per platform
Stack & tooling

The stack our Android
app development team ships with.

The full Jetpack ecosystem. This is what our Android engineers use every day.

Kotlin

Primary language for modern Android: coroutines, Flow, Retrofit, and Compose-first APIs.

Java

Legacy codebase maintenance and Kotlin-Java interop on long-lived products.

Jetpack Compose

Declarative UI with state hoisting, previews, and Material 3 theming.

XML Views

View-based layouts and incremental Compose migration inside existing apps.

Android SDK

Platform APIs, permissions, and release-target alignment across OEM devices.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Straight answers.

What we get asked before an Android hire. If yours isn't here, ask it on the call.

The same three steps as every seat we fill: a coding test, a system-design interview, and a walkthrough of something they've shipped. Then an Android-only round covering Jetpack Compose and XML Views, coroutines and Flow, Hilt, Room, WorkManager, and how they test on real Samsung, Xiaomi, and Pixel phones rather than one emulator. Knowing Play policy is part of the screen. We don't assume it.
Kotlin. All new Android work is in Kotlin, and Jetpack Compose only works with it. If you're sitting on a Java codebase, the engineer keeps maintaining it in Java and runs a Java-to-Kotlin migration as its own piece of work when that's the goal, rather than passing off interop patches as a migration.
Yes. Compose for new screens, since it's faster, easier to test, and where Google is heading. XML Views wherever a full Compose migration isn't worth it yet. The engineer you get migrates gradually, adding Compose screens inside a View-based app, without a big-bang rewrite.
Real devices first: Samsung, Xiaomi, Pixel, OnePlus. Firebase Test Lab covers the wider device list. Layouts adapt from 5-inch phones to 10-inch tablets, and the minimum Android version is chosen from your real user base rather than a default.
Usually three to five business days after the contract is signed. Across the engagements we've staffed, the first pull request is typically up about two weeks after kickoff.
A monthly rate per engineer: 160 hours for full-time or 80 for part-time. Hourly work runs in 40-hour blocks. We quote the rate on the first call.
Replacement is free within the first two weeks, from the same bench, with no restart. After that, 30 days' notice changes or ends the engagement. Full-time and part-time have a three-month minimum. Hourly doesn't.
