Hire Android Developer
Hire Android Developer, a dedicated android developer who builds native Android apps in Kotlin and Jetpack Compose that perform across the real device
HandsOnTech lets you hire android developer in 1–2 weeks, a dedicated senior android developer who builds native Android apps in Kotlin and Jetpack Compose that perform across the real device spectrum, from flagships to budget phones. Embedded in your Slack and tools, overlapping U.S. business hours, on a monthly engagement you can scale up or down.
Why teams hire android developer instead of recruiting
A full-time search for a senior android developer takes three to six months, recruiter fees, interview loops, a notice period, and a coin-flip on fit. Meanwhile the roadmap doesn't wait. Hiring dedicated through HandsOnTech inverts the math: you interview a vetted senior this week, they're embedded in your Slack and standups within two, and if the fit isn't right you swap or stop instead of restarting a six-month cycle. You get store-ready builds, TestFlight releases your stakeholders can hold, and review-cycle experience on both stores, without adding permanent headcount before the workload justifies it.
What a senior android developer actually does for you
Your dedicated android developer builds native Android apps in Kotlin and Jetpack Compose that perform across the real device spectrum, from flagships to budget phones. Day to day that means working in Kotlin, Jetpack Compose, Coroutines, Room, Play Console and Device-matrix testing, inside your repository and your tools, not a parallel process you have to manage. They join sprint planning, demo working output every two weeks, and document decisions so the knowledge stays with your team when the engagement ends. You talk to the person doing the work; there is no account-manager relay between you and your specialist.
How we vet before you ever meet them
The staffing-industry trick is showing you a strong resume and staffing a different person. We don't run a bench of anonymous juniors, the specialists we place are the same seniors who ship our own client work. Vetting means shipped apps you can download today, and war stories about review rejections they fixed. The person you interview is the person who shows up on day one, covered by NDA and full IP assignment from the first hour. The risk we screen out is someone who has built features but never carried an app through App Store review and a production crash report, the expensive lesson most teams learn one bad contract too late.
Pricing and how to start
Dedicated engagements are quoted as a flat monthly rate based on seniority and hours of overlap you need, in writing, before you commit, with no recruiter percentage or agency markup maze. Most placements start within one to two weeks of the intro call. Tell us the stack, the sprint goals and the hours, and we'll propose the specialist and a start date within two business days, or tell you honestly if we don't have the right person, instead of staffing a warm body.

From intro call to embedded, in two weeks
No six-month recruiter search, no staffing-agency markup maze.
Intro call
Tell us the role, stack and hours you need. We ask the questions a recruiter wouldn’t know to ask.
Meet your specialist
You interview the actual person, portfolio, code, communication. No bait-and-switch with a different face on day one.
Embedded and working
NDA and IP assignment signed, access granted, first tickets picked up. They join your standup like any teammate.
First demo
Working output in the sprint review. If the fit isn’t right, swap or stop, you only continue if it’s working.
Three ways to add capacity
Every model starts with a free consultation and a written quote, the price you sign is the price you pay.
Dedicated Specialist
A single senior specialist embedded in your team, the depth of a hire without the recruiting cycle.
- Start within 1–2 weeks of the intro call
- Works in your Slack, repo and standups
- U.S. business-hours overlap guaranteed
- Monthly engagement, scale with 2 weeks notice
- NDA and full IP assignment from day one
Team Pod
A complete pod that ships a product end to end, one accountable unit, one invoice.

- Two-week sprints with Friday demos
- One point of accountability for the outcome
- Ramp the pod up or down by role
- Ideal for MVPs and major product pushes
Sprint Engagement
A defined deliverable (audit, design system, integration) in a fixed block of sprints.
- Written deliverable list before start
- Fixed price for the sprint block
- Senior specialist, not a junior on trial
- Extends into a dedicated engagement if you want
- Fastest way to evaluate working with us
HandsOnTech vs. dev shops
What you can hold us to
Not adjectives, terms. Each of these is written into the engagement before you sign.
Fixed price, in writing, before work starts
You receive a written scope with milestones, deliverables and a delivery date within 48 hours of the free audit. No hourly creep, and no change order three weeks before launch.
You own everything on final payment
Source code, Figma files, content and analytics access transfer to you when the final invoice clears. No license fees, no vendor lock-in, and no platform you can only edit by paying us.
A 30-day bug warranty, in the contract
Bugs found in the first month after go-live are fixed free. It is a contractual term rather than a sales promise, and it is the reason we would rather ship correctly than ship early.
30-day warranty
Bugs found in the first month get fixed free, in the contract.
You own everything
Code, designs and content transfer on final payment.
U.S. hours overlap
Standups and demos on ET, CT, MT or PT, your pick.
Fixed price, fixed date
Quoted in writing before work starts. No surprise change orders.

Why hire android developer from HandsOnTech?
You get senior specialists embedded in your team, not junior bench rotation. The people we place are the same seniors who ship our own client work, so what you get is store-ready builds, TestFlight and Play internal releases your stakeholders can hold, and release-cycle experience on both platforms. Direct Slack access, daily U.S. hours overlap and sprint-based delivery, without signing a long agency contract.
How fast can we hire android developer?
Most dedicated roles start within 1–2 weeks of the intro call. We match stack, overlap hours and sprint goals before day one, and you should expect a running build on your device in the first sprint, plus a review of your current store listing and crash reports.
Should we hire dedicated talent or buy a fixed-price project?
Choose a dedicated mobile engineer when the app is live and shipping releases continuously. Choose a fixed-price project when you are building the app itself, an MVP or a full product with a launch date, where the store submission and the warranty should be somebody else’s problem.
What is the engagement model and how is it priced?
A flat monthly rate based on seniority and the hours of overlap you need, quoted in writing before you commit, with no recruiter percentage and no agency markup maze. Scale up or down with two weeks’ notice. If the fit is not right in the first sprints you swap or stop, so a bad hire costs you two weeks instead of six months.
Do you work U.S. business hours?
Yes. Every engagement guarantees daily overlap with your time zone, Eastern, Central, Mountain or Pacific, so standups, sprint reviews and pairing happen during your working day. Contracts, invoicing and IP assignment run through Hands On Technologies, a U.S. entity headquartered in Sacramento, California.
Do we interview the actual person who will do the work?
Yes. The specialist you interview is the specialist who starts, with their real portfolio, code and communication in front of you, not a recruiter’s summary of someone you never meet. NDA and full IP assignment are signed before day one.
Is SEO included when we hire developers?
Foundational SEO is baked into every web deliverable: clean URLs, meta structure, schema markup, GA4 and Core Web Vitals targets. Ongoing SEO, AEO and content programs are scoped separately as a service engagement.
Is this remote or on-site?
Remote-first with video standups during your business hours. On-site workshops in major U.S. metros are available by arrangement from our Sacramento, California headquarters.
