What I'm looking for
I am a software engineer with 8+ years of experience in front-end and full-stack development, specializing in scalable applications and optimized user interfaces. I excel in leading development efforts, mentoring teams, and driving product success.
Technical Expertise & Impact
At Microsoft, I led the development of Action Message Extensions (AMEs) for Outlook, enabling users to perform actions directly within emails. This streamlined workflows and improved engagement by 30%, leading to a 15% increase in feature adoption. Additionally, I optimized API performance, reducing load times by 15%, ensuring a smoother user experience across Teams and Copilot.
In Game.tv, I played a pivotal role in scaling the mobile app to 1M+ downloads, integrating backend APIs to boost data sync speed by 40% and designing APIs for an NFT marketplace, supporting 50K+ users. My performance optimizations improved app load times by 25%, significantly enhancing user engagement.
Leadership & Mentorship
At BlueStacks, I led and mentored a team of three junior engineers, successfully building an MVP from scratch within just two months. I established best coding practices, guided architectural decisions, and conducted code reviews, ensuring high-quality, scalable solutions. Through regular pair programming sessions and technical workshops, I accelerated their learning curve, enabling them to take on independent feature development within three months. This mentorship boosted team efficiency by 40% and ensured faster product iterations.
Commitment to Growth & Excellence
Beyond delivering impactful solutions, I thrive in fast-paced, high-impact environments, continuously learning and adapting to new technologies. Whether it’s optimizing UI performance, leading feature development, or mentoring engineers, my focus is on delivering results that drive business growth and user satisfaction.
