Interview Stages 4
MUST HAVE SKILLS
Requirement:
- Strong early stage startup/founding engineer experience
- 8-10+ years building and shipping consumer-facing Android apps natively in Java or Kotlin at scale
You might be an especially good fit if you have:
- Experience building for the Latin American Market
- Experience in financial technology
- Good design sense
- Full-stack engineering skillset and ability to flex across other parts of the stack
Requirements
First candidate was very competent enterprise engineering leader, but client is looking for someone super hands-on, brings some mobile exposure, and someone who has start up experience is what they want. NOT someone who has been high up in management at an enterprise corporation, which is a big mismatch with this client.
