🚀 Keeping a project up-to-date often leads to more foundational changes. In our Android project, adopting Jetpack Compose—the new declarative way of building UI—pushed us to reevaluate the presentation pattern we had been using for years. The result? We developed a small framework that helps us transition to the MVI (Model-View-Intent) pattern, making it easier to connect the UI with the other layers of our architecture.

Saturday, the 14th, was a great day for us as we participated in this year’s NTUA_H4CK 3.0, hosted by the IEEE NTUA Student Branch! Giorgos Tsigkourakos, Application Security Team Leader took the stage to deliver an engaging presentation on Bug Hunting, Ethical Hacking, and Skroutz’s modern approach to Application Security. From exploring real-world Application Security Bugs to offering practical advice on becoming a Bug hunter and Ethical hacker, George provided the audience with insights into the dynamic world of Security Application Testing. We’re proud to support events like NTUA_H4CK, which inspire and educate the next generation of tech enthusiasts and cybersecurity professionals. #teamskroutz #CyberSecurity #NTUA_H4CK

Super excited about our first marketing activation in Romania, inspired by the celebration of Saint Nicholas! 🎁  According to Romanian tradition, St. Nicholas visits on the night of December 5th, leaving gifts in freshly polished boots—unless someone has been naughty! This year, we decided to surprise parents, who are often overlooked during the holiday season, with a special treat just for them. 🌟 #teamskroutz #skroutzro #marketplace

We were there!  Some of us – Nikos Maounis, Head of Mobile, iOS, Spyros Zarzonis, Senior iOS engineer, Fotis Fatouros, Staff iOS engineer and George Fragkiadakis, Mobile Engneer, iOS – had the incredible opportunity to attend the “Discover Apple Intelligence” event hosted by Apple in Istanbul, Turkey. 🙌 The event was a mix of learning, innovation, and a deep dive into the latest advancements in iOS development, showcasing how Apple continues to push the boundaries of technology. A huge thank you to Apple for organizing such an amazing experience and for building a vibrant developer community. Here’s to innovation and bringing the best to our users! #teamskroutz #iOSDevelopment #AppleEvent

🚀 New blog alert! 🚀 Let’s face it—being a manager can sometimes feel like surfing without a board. Leonidas Partsas, our Android Engineering Manager, totally gets it. It took him a full two and a half years to update his LinkedIn title. What was holding him back? Saying goodbye to the things he loved most—like writing code. Turns out, swapping your keyboard for leadership responsibilities isn’t as seamless as Ctrl+Z. Click the link, grab a coffee and learn from his journey. Your future manager self will thank you! 🌟 EN: https://lnkd.in/dQxf56AG GR: https://lnkd.in/d2yGizsY #LeadershipJourney #androidengineering

💡 Data-driven vs Data-imposed decisions 💡 #Skroutzsessions podcast time and this month we analyze the fine art of balancing data with human intuition (yes, humans are still involved, despite what the data might say). 🧠 📊 Christos Lontos, Head of Business Intelligence (aka the guy who makes sense of all the numbers) and Nikolas Bompos, Director of Marketplace Operations (aka the one keeping everything running smoothly while we geek out on data) are exploring how much should data influence our decisions and when to say, “Okay, thanks, but we’ve got this!” Enjoy responsibly or in other words come for the insights, stay for the data-driven debates.
