Seasoned Android developer with expertise in Kotlin and app development.
What I'm looking for
I am a seasoned Android developer with around 6 years of expertise in crafting robust Android applications using Kotlin. My journey in app development has been marked by a commitment to designing, implementing, and maintaining applications that not only meet user needs but also enhance overall user experience. I have a proven track record of leading projects from inception to completion, ensuring high-quality results through collaboration and innovative problem-solving.
At PlayGames24x7, I led the development of the PokerCircle app and contributed to multiple features in My11Circle and RummyCircle, catering to over 10 million users. My efforts in transitioning to Kotlin and refactoring code resulted in a significant increase in team efficiency. I take pride in my ability to reduce crashes and ANRs by 80% across all products, showcasing my dedication to delivering maintainable and streamlined solutions. Mentoring junior developers has also been a rewarding aspect of my career, as I believe in fostering a collaborative and growth-oriented team environment.
