What I'm looking for

I am seeking senior technical roles leading Android/mobile teams where I can mentor engineers, modernize codebases, and deliver scalable, high-performance apps in an agile, collaborative environment.

I am an Android Tech Lead with extensive experience building scalable, high-performing mobile applications and leading cross-platform teams. I mentor junior and intermediate developers, drive migrations from legacy codebases to modern Android standards, and have led maintenance for apps with over 1M users.

I am proactive, self-driven, and adaptable, focused on optimizing workflows, improving code quality, and delivering impactful solutions using modern Android tooling and architectures. I work well in remote, agile environments and prioritize best practices, testing, and performance.
