    Senior Kotlin developer

    $5500 month

    The best part of Kotlin is how expressive and safe it is. I love working with teams that value structure and care about technical debt. In my last two roles, I led refactors that cut crash rates by 30% and helped reduce backend latency.

I’m most excited about projects that involve real users and product logic — not just ‘fixing tickets.’ For me, clean architecture and smooth teamwork are just as important as writing elegant code.

Here’s how we help you hire Kotlin programmers in 7 simple steps

Our process helps you go from requirements to developer onboarding without wasting time on mismatches or underqualified candidates.

STEP 01:

Kick-off call

We meet with your delivery or engineering lead to understand the business goals behind hiring Kotlin developers. This includes tech stack, performance expectations, and product lifecycle stages.

STEP 02:

Sourcing

We start with pre-vetted engineers from our internal bench. These candidates have already gone through cultural and technical evaluations.

STEP 03:

Initial HR interview

All candidates go through a soft skills check and communication screening to ensure they're ready for collaboration and fluent in English. This helps avoid friction post-onboarding.

STEP 04:

Tech interview

We check the candidate’s Kotlin knowledge, from language features to design patterns. We focus on code quality, testability, and system design thinking.

STEP 05:

Client interview

You review our top picks and can assign a short test project to validate hands-on capabilities. We help coordinate interviews, feedback loops, and documentation as needed.

STEP 06:

Offer

Once you approve, we help onboard the developer into your team, including documentation, security policies, and first-sprint planning.

STEP 07:

Retention

Once onboarded, we remain involved. We do check-ins, help resolve delivery blockers, and assist with long-term team development if needed.
