The role

Two offline-first Android applications in under eight weeks — a Tamil-first Farmer app and a Pilot app — running on real handsets in real fields, where most agricultural applications in India quietly fail. A full working day with no signal is a requirement, not an aspiration.

Key responsibilities

Own the Farmer app: onboarding and consent, pin-drop and saved fields, booking, payment, invoice, proof media and history
Own the Pilot app: offline job list, credential check-in, custody capture, material draw, navigation, telemetry relay fallback, acreage and proof capture, collections and incident reporting
Own releases, crash reporting, and the conflict policy — the server wins on money and custody, the device wins on captured media and timestamps, because the phone was there and the server was not
Surface every conflict in an operations queue rather than resolving it silently
Hit eight hours fully offline across six jobs, then a clean sync inside a three-minute window on a poor connection — no lost media, no silent conflicts, no manual repair




Get a first-time farmer through a booking unaided in four minutes or less, observed in silence
Hold crash-free sessions above 99.9 per cent, measured on rugged devices and on pilots’ own handsets — never on the developer’s phone

Eligibility

Three to five years of native Kotlin, with at least two apps published and live
Offline-first proven in production — sync, conflict handling, deletion semantics — and you can describe a conflict bug you shipped and then fixed
Location, camera and push, and a crash-reporting tool used properly
Release discipline: version codes, signing, staged rollout
You test on at least five real devices, not an emulator

What you get

Two applications owned outright, used by people you can go and watch
Field visits to Erode during commissioning — the fastest known cure for writing software for an imagined farmer
