Mobile engineer with 13 years on Android and iOS, owning products end to end. Most recently I designed and built HelperBook, a fully offline household-payroll app, and shipped it on Google Play.
Selected work
Founder & lead engineer · Feb 2026 – present
A local-only Android app for Indian households to track staff attendance, advances and salary settlements, plus the daily milk delivery and its monthly bill. No signup, no server: wage data never leaves the phone.
Founding Engineer → Head of Mobility / Lead Mobile Engineer · Jan 2021 – May 2025
The offline-first mobile engine behind an enterprise inspection platform that grew to 100+ B2B clients and 50,000+ users in 10+ countries. No data-loss incidents reported in 4.5 years of field use.
Contract Android Engineer · Jul 2025 – Jan 2026
100% of the Android client for a video-first hiring platform, from concept to production release. 30+ screens, CameraX capture, Media3 playback and on-device speech transcription.
Solo developer · Oct 2026
A coded prototype of a micro-drama streaming app, built solo in React Native and Expo. Real vertical video playback, episodes that lock on a cliffhanger, and a paywall with four working unlock paths. Runs on iOS, Android and web.
Services
For founders and product teams who need a mobile app built, rescued or moved to shared code.
Take an idea to an app in the store. Native Android, Kotlin Multiplatform or React Native, chosen for your product and team rather than my preference.
Apps that keep working with no signal and never lose what people entered: the phone as the source of truth, and sync designed with your backend team rather than bolted on.
For apps that have become hard to change or release. Stabilise first, then modernise in steps you can ship.
Start sharing code between Android and iOS with a Kotlin Multiplatform data layer, the way HelperBook does, then grow it one module at a time.
Part-time ownership of your mobile side when you need senior judgement but not a full-time hire yet.
