Freelance Remote C# Xamarin Forms / Android Mobile Developer (Work from Home in US)

We are looking for someone to join our team to help further develop a complex Xamarin.Forms app we created for iPhone and iPad. We are currently extending to Android phone and tablet and would like someone who has extensive experience with Android and Xamarin.Forms to assist with that and then work with the team on a selection of features queued up in our backlog.

Video or Audio streaming experience on Android is a plus. Experience integrating with Twitter is also beneficial.

I have interned at PWC and Deloitte and then after graduation, I worked at Deloitte for 5 years. I found that I was able to do valuable work right after joining and even as an intern. As an intern at PWC I did ethical hacking and had a good deal of oversight, but was able to own writing up documentation and participated in client calls. For a later project that summer, I had direct client contact and was seen as a strong contributor to the team. At Deloitte, my experience was similar as an intern but with slightly more ownership. Once joining Deloitte after graduation, I was holding one on one meetings and design sessions on a regular basis with the client about 4 months in. Initially, my project was more focused on data analysis and while I did have interactions with the client, they were limited as I did not need to interact with them much. Experience will certainly vary from person to person as the responsibility given to someone will change by project and also with how well management knows you, at least earlier in your career. After about a year or two, it is not uncommon to be owning an entire piece of the project and it goes up from there. They probably wouldn't hire you if they didn't feel they could put you in front of a client early on.


Thanks for the reply - I asked because I'm considering an offer for entry-level consulting at a big IT firm, and I wanted to have a sense of what I'd be doing. My background is in petrochemicals, so I figure I'll be in that domain for a bit. Ideally, I'd like to move around in different domains and see what I like best. Do you think an entry-level hire would get a decent chance to explore?
