About

I'm a Senior/Lead Android Developer with 7.5+ years of experience building secure, high-scale consumer and fintech applications used by 10 million+ users — from mobile banking to parenting and pregnancy tech to agri-tech platforms serving farmers across India. At Infosys, I lead Android development for a secure mobile banking app, implementing biometric authentication, OTP verification, and multi-factor authentication while mentoring a team of 5 developers and driving code review standards across the codebase. I've reduced ANR rates, cut app startup time, and eliminated recurring memory leaks — directly improving retention and app store ratings. Previously at Mylo, I built and scaled core features of a parenting and pregnancy app with 10M+ downloads, including a period-tracking calendar, in-app e-commerce, a doctor-consultation module, and a loyalty/referral currency system — working end-to-end from architecture to release. My technical foundation: Kotlin, Java, Jetpack Compose, MVVM/Clean Architecture, Coroutines & Flow, Dagger/Hilt, Room, Retrofit, Firebase, JUnit/Espresso, CI/CD, and Git. I care about clean architecture, mentoring the next generation of Android engineers, and shipping products that are fast, secure, and genuinely useful. Open to Lead/Senior Android roles at product companies where craftsmanship and ownership matter.
