Google Developers Porto October Meetup - Android

Akshay Chordiya: Thriving in an AI era 🔮
Feeling stuck or unsure about your future as an Android developer?
You’re not alone. Between GenAI and Agents getting better and better, sloth in hiring; the role of an Android engineer is shifting fast and it’s easy to feel “Am I still relevant? Should I be learning AI? Will Android still be Android in 5 years?”
We’ll break it down together:

• What’s actually changing in the Android world (and what’s not)
• How AI, and platform shifts impact your career path
• How do you manage your mental health 🧠
• Why it’s time to move beyond just “Android” and think bigger
• How to stand out, adapt, and stay confident in a fast-moving ecosystem
• Practical strategies to future-proof your skills and mindset
  Whether you’re just starting out, mid-career, or leading teams, this talk will help you shake off the uncertainty and rediscover what makes you valuable in this new era of Android development.

Mohit Sarveiya: Deep Dive into Claude Code
Ever wondered what happens under the hood when Claude Code runs your next Android task? This talk is a deep dive into the internals of Anthropic's AI coding agent. We'll walk through the architecture from the bootstrap pipeline to the agent loop that drives every interaction. You'll see how it executes tools concurrently using a safety aware batching system. We'll explore how fork agents share prompt cache prefixes to optimize token usage. We'll also look at how a four layer context compression strategy keeps conversations from exhausting the context window. You'll walk away with a mental model of how production AI agents work and a toolkit of patterns you can apply to your own Android workflows, whether you're building custom MCP integrations, orchestrating multi agent tasks, or just trying to get more out of the tool you already use every day.
