• Implement clean application architectures (e.g., MVVM/MVI) including navigation, state management, and data flow.

• Write high‑quality, testable code with appropriate unit, integration, and UI tests, and participate in code reviews.

• Understanding of Android app architecture patterns (e.g., View Model, coroutines/Flow, dependency injection) and modern Android libraries.

• Exposure to AOSP or Android Automotive OS (AAOS) frameworks, platform APIs, or system services integration.

• Strong debugging and problem‑solving skills using Android Studio and related tools.

• Ability to work effectively in a collaborative, cross‑functional team, communicating clearly with engineering, product, and design stakeholders.
