What I'm looking for
I am a Senior Software Engineer specializing in Android development, currently working at Kutumb in Bengaluru. With a strong foundation in Kotlin and Java, I have successfully led projects that significantly improved user retention and app performance. My recent work on the Crafto app resulted in a 6.7% increase in user retention through optimized video loading times and a 20% average performance boost using baseline profiling and testing frameworks.
Previously, I contributed to the Aakash Byju's app and WhiteHat Jr, where I designed clean architecture structures and implemented base classes. My experience also includes quality assurance, where I wrote Selenium automation scripts and managed deployment support. I am passionate about leveraging technology to create seamless user experiences and have been recognized with multiple awards for my contributions in the field.
