About

I'm a Lead Android Engineer with 5.5+ years of experience designing and building scalable, high-performance Android applications used by millions of users. My expertise includes Kotlin, Java, Jetpack Compose, Kotlin Multiplatform (KMP), Android SDK, Clean Architecture, MVVM/MVI, Coroutines, Hilt, and Firebase. I enjoy solving complex engineering problems, improving application performance, and building maintainable mobile platforms. At Shaadi.com, I've led Android architecture initiatives, built a reusable Jetpack Compose Design System, reduced crash rates by 99%, ANRs by 30%, and app startup time by 30%, while accelerating feature delivery through Kotlin Multiplatform and reusable architecture. I also mentor engineers, conduct design and code reviews, and collaborate closely with product, design, and QA teams to deliver high-quality user experiences. I'm passionate about clean architecture, platform engineering, developer experience, performance optimization, and AI-assisted software development. I actively explore how AI tools can improve engineering productivity, code quality, and delivery without compromising software design. I'm always interested in connecting with engineers and teams building scalable consumer products
