Overview
Native Android development matters when the user expects Material 3 polish, foldable support, deep system integration, or Wear OS extensions. Our Android developers write Kotlin, build UIs in Jetpack Compose (XML when interop demands), use Coroutines and Flow for async, and ship through Play Console with phased rollouts. They know when to drop to NDK, when to integrate with system features (App Actions, Quick Settings tiles), and how to debug the inevitable Pixel-vs-Samsung quirks.
Why Techyor.
Senior. Specialist. Shipping.
Compose-first, XML-fluent
New work in Jetpack Compose. XML when interop with legacy Views is required. We don't apologize for either — both are tools, used correctly.
Material 3 + custom brand
Material 3 as foundation, custom theming for brand identity. Dark mode, dynamic color, motion specs — implemented correctly, not approximated.
Play Console launch fluency
Internal testing, closed testing, phased rollouts, app signing by Google Play, in-app updates. We ship with the levers Google provides, not against them.

How you can hire.
Three ways to engage.
Dedicated Full-Time
A senior developer working exclusively on your product, embedded into your team, sprint cycle, and rituals. Best for roadmap-driven work with continuous shipping.
Part-Time / Fractional
Two to three days a week of senior expertise. Ideal for early-stage teams, technical advisory, code review, or supplementing an existing in-house team.
Fixed-Scope Project
Defined milestones, outcomes, and timeline. Best when the brief is clear and you want a predictable budget. Includes design, QA, and handover.
How it works.
Simple. No theatre.
- 01
Quick intro call
A 30-minute conversation. Tell us what you're building, the stack you're on, and where you'd like help. No deck, no obligation.
- 02
We share our experience
We walk you through relevant projects we have shipped, the approach we would take, and the trade-offs to expect. Honest about what we are great at — and what we are not.
- 03
Start work
Mutual NDA, a clear scope, and a start date. We begin shipping that week. Daily updates and a single point of contact throughout.

FAQ.
Common questions.
Compose or XML?
Compose for new work — modern, type-safe, less boilerplate. XML when integrating with legacy Views, complex AnimatedVectorDrawable, or advanced ConstraintLayout patterns Compose doesn't yet match.
Architecture — MVVM, MVI, Clean?
MVVM for most apps. MVI for state machines (chat, complex forms) where unidirectional data flow pays off. Clean Architecture when team size and feature count justify the structure.
Foldables, tablets, Wear OS?
We ship for foldables and tablets when product justifies (window size class APIs, dual-pane layouts). Wear OS as an extension to phone apps when the use case fits — not as a default.
Coroutines or RxJava?
Coroutines + Flow for new work. RxJava in legacy codebases — we maintain it but don't write new RxJava.
Play Store rollout strategy?
Internal testing → Closed testing (alpha/beta) → Production with staged rollout (10% → 50% → 100%). In-app updates SDK for forced critical updates. We monitor crash rate and ANR rate before each ramp.
How do you handle device fragmentation?
Test on real devices via Firebase Test Lab (matrix of OEM, OS version, screen size). Watch for OEM-specific quirks (especially Samsung, Xiaomi). Ship with crash reporting (Crashlytics or Sentry) tagged by device model.
How fast can a developer start?
For most roles, within 5–10 business days from the intro call. We pre-qualify our bench so onboarding is contracts and access — not a hiring search.
Do you sign NDAs and IP assignment agreements?
Yes — every engagement starts with a mutual NDA and a clean IP assignment clause. All work product is your property the moment it's written.
What time zones do your developers cover?
Our team primarily operates in IST with 4–6 hours of overlap with US Pacific, full overlap with EU, and full overlap with AU East. We commit to overlap windows in writing.
