FAQ — frequently asked questions

Is this Android job fully remote?

Yes. This is a fully remote position. You can work from anywhere within India. There is no requirement to relocate to Chennai or report to an office. Tringapps operates with a distributed team across multiple locations.

Do I need to know Kotlin, or is Java enough?

Strong Java skills are mandatory for this role. Kotlin is listed as preferred but not required. Candidates who know only Java with strong OOP fundamentals are still encouraged to apply, especially if they have the willingness to learn Kotlin on the job.

What is the expected salary for this role?

The listing does not specify a fixed salary, but for a Senior Android Engineer with 3+ years of experience in India, the typical market range is ₹8–14 LPA. Final compensation at Tringapps will depend on your experience, skills, and interview performance.

What kind of apps does Tringapps build?

Tringapps focuses on media and streaming applications, including Android mobile apps and connected TV platforms like Amazon Fire TV. If you have experience in media playback (ExoPlayer, DRM, HLS/DASH streaming), that experience would be highly relevant here.

Is Fire TV experience required to apply?

No. Fire TV experience is a bonus but is explicitly listed as not mandatory. If you have solid Android phone/tablet app experience, you meet the core requirement. Fire TV knowledge would simply give your application an advantage.

What does the interview process look like at Tringapps?

While the exact process isn't publicly listed, senior Android roles at companies like Tringapps typically involve a resume screening, a technical coding round (Android-focused), a system design discussion, and a final HR round. The process is usually completed within 2–3 weeks.

Can candidates outside Chennai apply for this role?

Yes. Since this is a remote job, candidates from any city in India — Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Mumbai, Delhi, Coimbatore, Pune, or anywhere else — can apply without needing to relocate.
