Rahul Barnwal

@rahulbarnwal

I build high-scale Android apps with Kotlin, Compose, and reliable mobile architecture.

I've built and shipped Android products at Times Internet, including the Economic Times and ET Markets apps serving a combined 10M+ users. I work across Kotlin, Jetpack Compose, MVVM, Clean Architecture, REST APIs, WebSockets, Firebase, and local persistence.

I created a reusable networking module that improved payload size and latency on slower connections, cut cold-start time by 25%, and reduced crash rate by 20%. I also built the ET Prime subscription flow and turned it into an SDK adopted by five other apps.

Earlier, I delivered offline-first Android and React Native features for NEC Corporation projects and built Domino's ordering, payment, and live-tracking features, improving transaction success by 15%. I lead releases, testing, crash triage, code reviews, and mentoring for junior Android developers.
