Mobile Development

Discovery

Stakeholder interviews to align on product vision, followed by a deep codebase audit covering architecture, test coverage, and build times. I then recommend platform selection — native Android, Flutter, or Kotlin Multiplatform — based on your timeline, existing team shape, performance requirements, and long-term maintenance capacity.

Architecture

Design of modular project structure, dependency injection strategy using Dagger or Hilt, state management patterns such as MVVM or MVI, and API contract design with strong typing. All major decisions are documented in an Architecture Decision Record to preserve context for future team members.

Development

Sprint-based delivery with structured PR templates, mandatory code review, and weekly demo sessions. Native modules are used for platform-specific capabilities like camera or Bluetooth, while shared UI and business logic layers eliminate duplication across iOS and Android.

QA & Release

Comprehensive automated testing including unit tests, integration tests, and screenshot testing to prevent visual regressions. CI/CD pipelines on Bitrise or GitHub Actions manage staging builds, staged rollouts, and automated crash monitoring integration for production confidence.

Growth

Post-launch ASO metadata optimization, store asset preparation including screenshots and preview videos, analytics instrumentation with Firebase or Amplitude, and a dedicated support window to stabilize crash rates and user retention metrics.

What platforms do you develop for?

I specialize in Android (Kotlin/Java), cross-platform Flutter, and Kotlin Multiplatform. This covers native Android apps, iOS-compatible cross-platform delivery, and shared business logic across platforms.

Do you handle both native and cross-platform development?

Yes. I recommend native Android when performance or platform-specific integrations are critical, and Flutter or KMP when timeline and code reuse are the priority. Every recommendation is based on your product requirements, not personal preference.

What does a fractional mobile lead engagement look like?

Typically 2-3 days per week focused on architecture decisions, code review, sprint planning, and unblocking your team. I act as a senior technical voice without the full-time overhead, scaling up during critical milestones.

How do you ensure app quality and performance?

Automated testing (unit, integration, screenshot), CI/CD pipelines, crash/ANR monitoring, and memory profiling. I also enforce code review standards and document architecture decisions so quality persists after handoff.

Can you help with App Store and Google Play submission?

Absolutely. I handle metadata preparation, screenshot templates, build signing, and submission pipelines. I also set up staged rollouts and crash monitoring so the launch is controlled and measurable.

What is your typical project timeline?

A Minimum Viable Product typically takes 8-12 weeks. Fractional engagements are ongoing with monthly renewals. Every project starts with a one-week discovery and technical audit to produce a realistic roadmap.

Do you work with teams in Dublin?

Yes. I collaborate seamlessly with Dublin and GMT timezone teams. Based in Japan, I work flexibly across APAC, EU, and US teams using async-first workflows to minimize timezone friction.

Do you serve nearby cities like Cork, Galway, Belfast?

Yes. I cover Dublin and surrounding areas within the same timezone. Because I work remote-native, physical distance is never a barrier.

What timezone overlap do you offer for GMT teams?

Typical overlap is adjustable within GMT business hours (roughly 9 AM – 3 PM GMT). Weekly check-ins and urgent reviews are scheduled in this window; everything else runs async via Slack or Linear.

Are you familiar with the Europe tech ecosystem?

Yes. I have collaborated on multiple projects with teams across Europe, from startups to enterprises. I can also navigate region-specific compliance requirements and market nuances.

What engagement models are available for Mobile Development in Dublin?

Dublin teams can choose the same flexible models as everyone else: fractional (2-3 days/week), project-based sprints (4-8 weeks), or a monthly advisory retainer. All engagements start with a one-week paid trial.
