Senior🎓
Top SchoolNiall Scott is an Edinburgh-based Managing Director and senior native Android developer with 16 years of experience building and maintaining Kotlin and Java applications across agencies, product companies, and charities. He runs Code Chateau, delivering full-lifecycle Android development, consultancy, code reviews and automated testing, while also contracting for clients like Snapp Automotive and Here I Am Studio. Niall frequently acts as the sole Android engineer on projects, modernising legacy C/C++-backed SDKs with clean architecture and unit tests and integrating deeply with Android telephony and networking APIs. Comfortable leading greenfield builds and sensitive releases (eg. mobile ticketing with anti-fraud requirements), he pairs hands-on coding with practical technical leadership and client-facing communication. Based in Scotland but working globally, he brings a pragmatic focus on reliability, maintainability and Material Design-driven UX to every engagement. An interesting constant: he often joins teams mid-project to stabilise and modernise Android codebases end-to-end.
