Android Performance & Stability Engineer (5-14 yrs)

Job Title : Android Performance and Stability Engineer

Experience : 5 - 14 Years

Location : Bangalore

Responsibilities :

Performance Analysis & Optimization :

- Conduct in-depth performance analysis of Android applications using profiling tools (e.g., Systrace, Profiler, Memory Analyzer) to identify performance bottlenecks, such as high CPU usage, excessive memory consumption, and slow rendering.

- Analyze system-level performance metrics (e.g., CPU usage, memory usage, battery consumption) to identify and address performance issues.

- Optimize application code for performance, including CPU usage, memory usage, battery consumption, and rendering speed.

- Collaborate with developers to implement performance improvements and optimizations.

Stability Analysis & Troubleshooting :

- Investigate and resolve application crashes, ANRs (Application Not Responding), and other stability issues.

- Analyze crash logs and other diagnostic data to identify the root cause of stability problems.

- Work closely with developers to fix bugs and improve application stability.

CPU Performance Optimization :

- Analyze CPU usage patterns and identify areas for improvement.

- Optimize application code for CPU efficiency, including reducing CPU-intensive operations and optimizing background tasks.

Memory Management :

- Identify and fix memory leaks and other memory-related issues.

- Optimize memory usage to improve application performance and reduce memory pressure on the device.

Android Internals :

- Deep understanding of Android internals, including the Android framework, Dalvik/ART runtime, and system services.

- Leverage knowledge of Android internals to optimize application performance and stability.

Hypervisor Environment Optimization :

- Analyze and optimize application performance within a hypervisor environment (e.g., virtualization, containerization).

- Ensure application compatibility and performance in virtualized environments.

Performance Tools & Techniques :

- Proficient in using Android performance profiling tools (e.g., Systrace, Profiler, Memory Analyzer).

- Experience with performance testing methodologies and tools.

- Strong understanding of optimization techniques for mobile devices.

Collaboration & Communication :

- Collaborate effectively with engineers across different teams (e.g., development, QA, product).

- Clearly and concisely communicate technical information to both technical and non-technical audiences.

Qualifications :

- 5-14 years of professional experience in Android application development.

- Strong understanding of Java/Kotlin and Android development frameworks.

- Proven experience in performance analysis and optimization of Android applications.

- In-depth knowledge of Android internals, including the Android framework, Dalvik/ART runtime, and system services.

- Experience with CPU performance optimization, memory management, and battery optimization.

- Proficiency in using Android performance profiling tools (e.g., Systrace, Profiler, Memory Analyzer).

- Experience with system-level analysis and performance tuning.

- Excellent problem-solving, analytical, and debugging skills.

- Strong communication and interpersonal skills.

- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science or a related field.
