Lagos, Lagos, Nigeria Ludo Naira Full time $1,000,000 - $2,500,000 per year

About LudoNaira

LudoNaira is Nigeria's leading real-money peer-to-peer Ludo gaming platform with 5M+ downloads, combining fast gameplay, secure wallet systems, anti-fraud intelligence, and real-time match mechanics.

We are building the most reliable and innovative skill-based gaming ecosystem in Africa — a platform trusted by players, creators, and gaming communities across the country.

Our team is small, sharp, and obsessed with speed, security, and execution. We don't build "just another app."

We build
systems that must never fail
, even under millions of concurrent users. If you want to work on high-traffic, real-time mobile systems, this is the environment for you.

Role Overview

We are looking for a true Senior Android Developer
— someone who can take full ownership of the entire Android application.

This is
not
a role for mid-levels, juniors, or developers who want to "learn on the job."

If you are juggling another full-time job or side gig,
do not apply
— we require
full dedication
.

You must have a proven history of building complex, scalable, consumer-facing apps — not simple CRUD or school-level projects.

What You'll Do

  • Architect, build, and maintain a high-performance Android app using
    Kotlin
    (100%).
  • Implement clean architecture, modular codebases, MVVM/MVI, and reactive state management.
  • Manage real-time features (sockets, live game updates, push notifications).
  • Handle wallet operations, secure transactions, and sensitive user flows.
  • Build real-time capabilities with efficient caching & background sync.
  • Optimize performance, eliminate crashes, and ensure smooth user experience.
  • Write production-grade, testable code with unit and UI tests.
  • Own the Play Store pipeline: release management, versioning, and monitoring.
  • Collaborate with product, backend, and design teams to ship fast without sacrificing quality.

Required Senior-Level Experience (Non-Negotiable)

Do NOT
apply if you cannot confidently demonstrate all of the following:

  • 5+ years of professional Android development
    with shipped real-world apps.
  • Expert-level
    Kotlin
    knowledge — not beginners transitioning from Java.
  • Strong expertise in:
  • Coroutines, Flows, Channels
  • Jetpack Compose
  • Clean Architecture + modularization
  • MVVM or MVI
  • Experience building real-time features (WebSockets/Firebase).
  • Strong experience with secure storage, encryption, and wallet-like flows.
  • Ability to structure large-scale applications for performance and reliability.
  • Evidence of solving memory leaks, ANRs, crashes, and performance bottlenecks.
  • Comfort working independently without hand-holding.

If your experience is mostly tutorials, cloning GitHub apps, or basic UI projects, this role is
not for you
.

Non-Negotiables

  • Full-time focus
    — no second job, no freelancing, no flexible split.
  • Clear, structured communication and documentation.
  • Ability to own problems end-to-end without waiting for instructions.
  • High personal standards for quality, speed, and accountability.

Nice to Have

  • Experience with high-traffic consumer apps (50k+ users).
  • Fintech, betting, or gaming background.
  • Familiarity with analytics, crash reporting, and feature flags.
  • Experience mentoring mid/junior devs.

How to Apply

Send your CV + GitHub + links to real shipped apps you've worked on to

  • Applications without real projects will not be considered.

Salary and remuneration

  • We pay a competitive salary, the same as you can earn anywhere in the world.
