Professional Experience

A timeline of my professional journey in software engineering

Senior Android Engineer

Carnot Technologies Private Limited

September 2022 - July 2024 (1 year 11 months) • Mumbai, Maharashtra, India

  • Led a team of 2 developers in adopting Model View ViewModel Architecture for three projects, leading to a 9% reduction in development time, a 15% improvement in code quality, and an estimated cost saving of $1000/month.
  • By converting the app into a Multi-Module project, we streamlined its structure, improved code maintainability, and facilitated independent testing, which achieved over 1 Million downloads on the Google Play Store.
  • Enhanced user experience and application resilience by implementing offline-first functionality. Refined data models for efficient local storage and synchronized data with a backend server using WorkManager, ensuring seamless operation even in low-connectivity environments.
