What I'm looking for
Hi, I’m Salih, a Senior Android Engineer with a knack for creating smart, user-friendly mobile apps. Over the years, I’ve worked on exciting projects like photography editing apps at Lyrebird Studio, where I developed feature-rich applications with a focus on performance and user experience. My commitment to clean, efficient code drives me to tackle challenges head-on, ensuring seamless app navigation and resource optimization.
At Lyrebird Studio, I managed AdMob ad lifecycles, ensuring efficient integration and user-friendly ad displays. I leveraged Firebase and Apollo GraphQL for robust backend integration and data handling, while also creating custom views with advanced bitmap blending and animations. My experience extends to designing adaptable layouts for RTL languages, enhancing accessibility for global users. I believe in a library-centric development approach to minimize third-party dependencies and reduce APK size, maintaining high-performance standards through regular profiling.
Throughout my career, I have developed various applications, including advanced features using Apollo GraphQL for seamless backend integration and high-performance rendering with OpenGL. I have a strong foundation in Android development principles and a passion for learning, which I believe makes technology powerful and approachable.
