## About

```text
At OLX India, I define mobile platform strategy and architecture across Android, iOS, and Kotlin Multiplatform for products serving 26M+ monthly active users. I own shared platform components spanning six mobile applications and 25+ repositories.

I architected EventForge and Omninet as reusable Kotlin Multiplatform products, and built Automata, an AI-assisted mobile automation platform that enables 9,000+ automated test scenarios. Automata helped reduce regression validation from three days to one day.

I also lead platform modernization and performance engineering. My work improved Android startup performance by up to 55%, reduced Android crash rate from 1.51% to 0.21%, and modernized CI/CD workflows that cut Android build times from three hours to 40 minutes.
