Mobile Developer (Flutter) Volunteer

About the Opportunity

Opportunity Description

Required Skills & Qualifications:

• Working knowledge of Flutter and Dart
• Understanding of mobile application fundamentals
• Experience consuming REST APIs
• Ability to follow design specifications and requirements
• Strong problem-solving and debugging skills
• Good communication and teamwork abilities

Must-Haves (non-negotiable):

• Comfortable with Dart and Flutter fundamentals (widgets, state, navigation).
• Can read and understand existing code before changing it — we have established conventions (e.g BLoC pattern) and need consistency, not a rewrite.
• Able to commit to a regular weekly time — even 4-5 hours/week is fine, but consistency matters more than total hours.
• Responsive on Slack — silence for days at a time is the most common reason volunteer collaborations fall apart.

Nice-to-Have (Not Mandatory):

• Experience publishing apps (Play Store / App Store)
• Familiarity with state management (Provider, Riverpod, Bloc, etc.)
• Understanding of mobile performance optimization
• Experience working in Agile teams

Company Needs

Mobile Developer (Flutter).

Role Overview:

We are looking for a Mobile Developer (Flutter) to help build and improve cross-platform mobile applications. This role is suitable for developers who want to deepen their Flutter experience while contributing to real-world products used by actual users. You will collaborate with backend developers, designers, and QA engineers to deliver high-quality mobile solutions.

What you will do

Volunteer Activities

Key Responsibilities:

• Develop and maintain mobile applications using Flutter
• Implement UI designs and ensure responsive performance
• Integrate backend APIs into mobile applications
• Debug and fix issues across Android and iOS builds
• Participate in sprint planning and technical discussions
• Collaborate with QA to resolve testing feedback
• Ensure code quality and maintainability

Nice-to-Have (can be learned on the job):

• Experience with BLoC specifically (vs Provider/Riverpod) — a bonus, not required.
• Familiarity with REST APIs and consuming them via http or dio.
• Some exposure to Git (branches, pull requests, basic conflict resolution)
• Has shipped anything before — a personal project, a tutorial app, a freelance gig. Proof they can finish things matters more than where they learned it

Soft Skills (arguably more important than technical skill here):

• Asks questions instead of guessing when something's unclear.
• Doesn't disappear without notice — life happens, just give us a heads-up.
• Open to feedback on code style/conventions without taking it personally.
• Genuinely interested in the project, not just padding a CV — this tends to predict who actually sticks around.
