Senior Android Engineer building production Kotlin apps and security-driven systems that ship faster, crash less, and run lean.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Senior Android Engineer with 3+ years building production-grade Android applications in Kotlin, and I bring a strong secondary background in penetration testing and applied security research.
At JioSaavn, I owned end-to-end delivery as the sole Android engineer on a B2B automotive pod—coordinating directly with engineering leadership and shipping across 8 car models from design to OEM partner release.
I’ve delivered measurable performance and reliability outcomes on constrained hardware: 58% memory reduction, 95% fewer crashes/ANRs/non-fatals, and 52% faster login flows through runtime architecture improvements and Firebase Crashlytics-driven triage.
I also lead security-minded engineering—integrating mobile-specific exploit learnings, completing PortSwigger labs and Active Directory attack paths, and running HTB/CTF writeups to continually sharpen my applied security instincts.
