And btw, we’re hiring, so it’s a perfect opportunity to safely ask all the additional questions!
Here’s the Compose QA landing that I’ve created for the previous time, and the Compiler Frontend QA position is yet to come 😉

Every time my (rare) tweets go viral I wonder what all the people are subscribing for. Though here’s a long-awaited overview of what Kotlin QA takes care of — if you’re in Berlin, don’t miss the chance: https://t.co/0AfFvHiDyh
You know you’ve been working here for quite a while when a new language feature you were testing IDE support for got deprecated with error… and you’re still here.
Today I became a QA lead in not only Kotlin, but also entire Open Source Ecosystem department at JetBrains.
I’ve also tried myself in another new role today.
Was it a coincidence? Nobody knows…
This is a 49-pager so far. Not only that I admire the entire Kotlin team for such a historical release to come, but I’m also specifically impressed by our Tech writing team!
To all the people who’ve recently asked me if we have any open QA positions in Kotlin. Actually, we’ve got one, and this is truly a gem. I would have definitely applied if I wasn’t here already!

📢The Kotlin 2.0.0-RC2 release is out! You can use the K2 compiler in production ➡️ https://t.co/J6xShyZf7D
🗻This release mostly covers the stabilization of the new Kotlin K2 compiler. In addition, there are new features in Kotlin/Wasm and Kotlin/JS, as well as improvements for the Gradle build tool.
⚙️ The Kotlin plugins that support 2.0.0-RC2 are bundled in the latest IntelliJ IDEA and Android Studio. You don't need to update the Kotlin plugin in your IDE. All you need to do is to change the Kotlin version to 2.0.0-RC2 in your build scripts.
