About

Senior Android Developer with 7+ years of experience building high-impact Android applications and deeply customized AOSP systems. Currently at HP Inc., I work at the intersection of Android framework engineering and product development — building a custom Android OS for enterprise tablets from the ground up. My work spans the full AOSP stack: build pipelines, SystemUI, custom home launchers, Recents/Overview implementation, split-screen, app pinning, animations, and Raspberry Pi-based development builds. Before HP, I've delivered production-grade Android apps in fintech (HDFC Bank MFI, HSBC UK banking) and field service (allGeo) domains — working with Kotlin, Jetpack Compose, MVVM, and clean architecture patterns. What drives me is solving hard, low-level problems that most Android developers never touch — from boot sequences to pixel-perfect system UI transitions. 🛠 Core strengths: • AOSP build system (repo, soong, make) & Raspberry Pi targets • SystemUI & Framework/Base customization • Custom Home Launcher & Recents stack (built from scratch) • Split-screen, App Pinning, Window Animations • Kotlin · Java · Jetpack Compose · Dagger Hilt · GMS Integration Technologies: Jetpack, MVVM, MVP, RX Java, Retrofit, Dagger2, Data binding, GPS, Camera, Music, IPC, Services, Broadcast Receiver, AIDL,REST JSON/XML API, Android Studio,Eclipse, PackageManager, ActivityManger, DeviceManger, Copilot, Claude, GPT Google: FCM/GCM,Analytics, Maps, Publishing Apps to PlayStore and Amazon App Store 📍 Bangalore, India | Open to AOSP & Senior Android roles
