Software Engineering Intern - (Client / Mobile - Android, iOS)
Nudge
About the role
Nudge is an emerging Indian fintech startup that aims to become the country’s ultimate commerce rewards platform. By allowing users to scan shopping bills, link accounts such as Gmail, Swiggy, and Zepto, and engage in gamified experiences, Nudge turns everyday purchases into rewarding experiences. The company’s mobile-first approach has resulted in a rapidly growing user base across both Android and iOS, positioning it as a high‑impact player in the rewards‑as‑a‑service space.
The mobile team at Nudge has adopted a modern, cross‑platform architecture built on Kotlin Multiplatform (KMP) and Compose Multiplatform. This enables a single codebase to power native experiences on Android and iOS while still allowing platform‑specific customisation where needed. As a Software Engineering Intern – Client (Mobile), you will join this fast‑moving team, work under a dedicated mentor, and contribute directly to features that reach thousands of daily users.
Key Responsibilities
- Develop and ship user‑facing screens for bill scanning, account linking, rewards dashboards, and in‑app games.
- Translate UI/UX designs into responsive, animated interfaces using Compose Multiplatform and SwiftUI where applicable.
- Integrate RESTful APIs, manage networking, caching, and offline data handling.
- Implement device‑level functionalities such as camera access, permission handling, push notifications, and deep linking.
- Write unit and UI tests, profile performance, and debug crashes to ensure a stable release.
- Participate in code reviews, follow the CI/CD pipeline, and assist in publishing builds to Play Store and App Store.
- Leverage AI coding assistants (Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot) to accelerate development while maintaining code quality.
- Explore shared Kotlin code execution on iOS, identify platform‑specific gaps, and propose solutions.
- Document feature implementations and contribute to internal knowledge bases.
- Collaborate closely with product, design, and backend teams to align on requirements and delivery timelines.
Tech Stack: Kotlin Multiplatform, Compose Multiplatform, Kotlin, Swift, Jetpack Compose, SwiftUI, REST/JSON APIs, Coroutines/async‑await, Git, AI coding tools.
