Amanda Benavidez

I’m a results-driven Senior Android Engineer with extensive experience designing, developing, and scaling high-impact mobile applications. I focus on turning complex requirements into robust, user-centric solutions by partnering closely with product, design, and engineering stakeholders.

At Quizlet, I led cross-functional initiatives including a complete 2025 Home Feed refresh using a server driven UI system, improving dynamic content rendering and release flexibility. I helped launch to 60 million monthly active users with no crashes post release.

I’ve also delivered AI driven study tools that dynamically generate interactive study guides from user uploaded materials. In parallel, I designed and deployed a highly adaptable server driven logging system to let teams forward server-defined data to the backend without requiring local data awareness.

I mentor engineers by breaking down complex roadmaps into actionable Jira tickets and supporting junior engineers through peer programming, PR reviews, and educational sessions. I bring a strong technical foundation across Kotlin/Java, Android architecture (MVVM, Jetpack Compose, Coroutines/Flow), and performance-focused networking and security work.
