Chiang Mai and Bangkok, Thailand · UTC+7 ## Questions about adding an Android Developer to your team. How do you test across so many devices? With a device matrix agreed at the start. It names real hardware for the top devices in your analytics, emulators for the long tail and cloud device testing where coverage matters most. The matrix is reviewed as your analytics change, so testing follows the devices your users run. Can the developer work on a Jetpack Compose migration? Yes, step by step. Moving screens to Jetpack Compose incrementally keeps the app stable while it modernises, because old and new UI can run in the same app. The developer plans the migration with your team and starts with the screens that change most often. The work then pays back in faster feature development. ## Add remote Android developers to your team.
