Hi everyone :wave:! <https://www.apollographql.com/|Apollo> is hiring an Android engineer to work on <https://github.com/apollographql/apollo-android|Apollo Android>. We're developing libraries and tools to help companies build, consume and monitor their GraphQL services :graphql:. The project is named Apollo Android but it's really 99% regular Kotlin 1.4 (hopefully 1.5 soon!), also with some JS/native parts. There's plenty of things to do around caching, concurrency, tooling and more! Feel free to message me for any question.

Hey <@U79JY5TL3> is this worldwide remote, or US only remote?

That is an amazing project. I wish I had a chance to use it on my projects so far.

I'd recommend making this a kotlin multiplatform effort. All the needed components are there to make that happen: co-routines, kotlinx-serialization, etc. The benefit is that the same stuff will also work elsewhere like IOS, native environments, and soon WASM. Kotlin is going all sorts of places. Even the browser. We actually developed our own kotlin multiplatform graphql client this way a while ago; it's not that hard. And we are using it  on JVM, Android, and in the browser. We may add IOS to that soonish.

<@UU2J0PJ81> If you look at `apollo-runtime-kotlin,` it has mpp support for codegen and parsing. Part of the decision of growing the team is to help streamline this, add more features and documentation.
