Skillset

I can collaborate different teams and projects effectively so we get things done.

Product Engineering

I build and ship for startups and companies at scale, few serving millions of users globally. I primarily write in Dart, Kotlin, Swift, C#, SQL. Occasionally in JavaScript, Python, NoSQL.

Rapid Prototyping

My experience at dub, Better (YC W22), and other startups has helped me built a sense of agency to execute and launch high-quality features on-time.

Native & Cross-platform Experiences

I started building beautiful interfaces with Flutter back in 2019 and shipped several apps since. I also architect systems in low-level APIs, integrate and build custom 3rd-party SDKs, and write in native code like in Android, iOS and macOS.

CI/CD & DevOps

I saved my team hundreds of dev hours by writing CI/CD pipelines for our projects. I also published reusable workflows for the community. I use CircleCI, Github Actions, fastlane. Occasionally, Bitrise, Jenkins and GitLab CI.

Community

I share my learnings and experiences to the community through events, my content, work, open source projects for technologies like Flutter, Dart, Firebase, and On-device ML.
