Summary
Nick Skelton is a Kotlin Multiplatform software engineer and architect with over a decade of hands-on experience modernizing large enterprise systems for clients like Bosch, VW, Mercedes-Benz and Allianz. He combines deep Kotlin/Android expertise with AI-driven orchestration to rapidly refactor legacy Java monoliths into reactive, MVI-based, cross-platform architectures that span Android, iOS, Web (Wasm), Desktop and backend services. A Google Developer Expert and frequent DroidCon speaker, he pairs strict Clean Code and SOLID discipline with blueprinted prompting techniques to make AI-generated code production-ready. As a consultant and mentor (Google LaunchPad) he moves teams from technical debt to maintainable, secure systems while also bootstrapping hiring, CI/CD and agile practices. Based in Munich and fluent in German and English, he is available for high-impact freelance and architectural engagements.
