What I'm looking for

I want to lead end-to-end mobile system design, build modular architectures, and mentor teams—using Kotlin, Compose, and strong CI/test practices to deliver measurable performance, quality, and developer-velocity improvements.

I’m a Lead Android Engineer with 12 years of software engineering experience designing and scaling high-performance mobile systems. I focus on modular, maintainable architecture—especially modular MVVM/Clean Architecture—and I take hands-on system design ownership across cross-platform SDKs.

At Glance (InMobi), I led the design and development of an end-to-end transaction SDK using Kotlin Multiplatform (KMP), architecting shared business logic across Android and iOS. I drove adoption of modular MVVM Clean Architecture, architected CI pipelines for automated testing, and delivered measurable improvements like up to 80% reduced duplicate development effort, +40% test coverage, and 20% API latency reduction through WebView request interception.

Previously at Shop101, I led a migration from React Native to native Kotlin, built from-scratch modular MVVM Clean Architecture, and automated CI/CD with Fastlane to reduce release time from hours to minutes. Earlier, at Flyrobe and RTBI, I revamped Android UI/UX, integrated key tools (Mixpanel, Razorpay, Firebase), built internal logistics and analytics capabilities, and mentored engineers to raise code quality.
