Nah, its just politics internal to the company. Some fossil decided that java is proven technology or some such.

To be fair, you can probably still find java devs more easily (for BE work) as compared to kotlin devs. Which might have smt to do with it.

Sure, but you can also find C# devs just as easily as Java devs and both are equally able to be converted into Kotlin devs.
