What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation, collaboration, and growth in mobile development.

I am a Senior Android Kotlin Developer with extensive experience in mobile development and a strong commitment to delivering high-quality applications. My journey in software development has been marked by a passion for exploring new technologies and contributing to developer communities. I thrive in agile environments, where I can leverage my strong communication and organizational skills to collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams.

Throughout my career, I have successfully led various projects, including the development of innovative features and enhancements for financial and lifestyle applications. My recent work involved reworking subscription models and improving app performance, where I achieved a notable reduction in crash rates and startup times. I am dedicated to maintaining a sustainable codebase and ensuring long-term maintainability in all my projects.

As I seek international opportunities, I am eager to bring my expertise in Kotlin and mobile development to new challenges. I am particularly interested in roles that allow me to continue growing as a developer while contributing to impactful projects that enhance user experiences.
