What I'm looking for
I am a Senior Android Engineer with a proven track record in modernizing legacy applications and driving revenue growth through innovative features.

At Gymshark, I successfully increased app ratings to 5 and crash-free users to 99.99% by implementing personalized user experiences and upsell/cross-sell features.
During my tenure at CAFU, I led the revamping of customer applications using Clean Architecture and modularization, resulting in a 10% boost in daily active orders. My work on loyalty programs and referral flows contributed to a remarkable revenue increase of 95k AED within just two months. I am passionate about leveraging data-driven insights to enhance user experiences and am committed to continuous improvement in app performance.
