What I'm looking for

Seeking a challenging role that leverages my expertise in mobile development, particularly with Kotlin and Java, to contribute to impactful projects and collaborate with innovative teams.

With over a decade in the software industry and a passion for solving real-world problems through technology, I bring dedication and expertise to every project, transforming complex challenges into innovative solutions that drive business success and user satisfaction.

My strengths include developing scalable architectures and optimizing system performance. I led the development of a device health monitoring solution collecting data from over 500,000 devices nationwide. In hospitality, I refactored legacy code for devices across 2,500+ restaurants, migrating from Java to Kotlin and implementing MVVM and clean architecture for improved performance and maintainability.

I thrive in collaborative environments, applying my problem-solving skills and mentoring others. I led the development of a digital identity SDK in Web3 and created an indoor GPS app for malls, collaborating with R&D and iOS teams to enhance shopper navigation.

Committed to continuous learning, I incorporate cutting-edge technologies like Kotlin Multiplatform (KMP) and Jetpack Compose to develop robust, future-proof applications with exceptional user experiences.

My combination of mobile and backend expertise allows me to create seamless, end-to-end solutions. By leveraging technologies such as Kotlin, Python, and Swift, I build applications that are both efficient and scalable.
