Overview
Why Android?
1Raft provides dedicated Android development teams that build production-grade native applications using Kotlin, Jetpack Compose, and the modern Android tech stack. With 30+ Android apps shipped across healthcare, fintech, logistics, and loyalty programs, 1Raft engineers deliver performant, Play Store-compliant applications designed for the full range of Android devices and form factors.
Android powers over 70% of mobile devices globally, and building for this ecosystem requires engineers who understand its complexity. Our Android team writes Kotlin-first code using Jetpack Compose for UI, Hilt for dependency injection, and Coroutines for async operations. We build for the real Android device market - not just Pixel phones, but the full range of devices, screen sizes, and OS versions your users actually have.
We have built Android apps that handle offline-first data sync for field workers in remote areas, process NFC payments at point-of-sale terminals, scan and validate receipts with on-device ML, and manage real-time delivery tracking with battery-efficient location services. Our engineers know where the platform helps and where it fights you.
Hiring Android developers from 1Raft means you get engineers who optimize for the constraints that matter: battery life, memory on low-end devices, background processing limits, and the diversity of the Android ecosystem. We have shipped apps with 99.8% crash-free rates, sub-300ms cold starts, and Google Play feature spotlights.
