Mobile engineering leader with 13 years across Flutter, native Android and native iOS. I've shipped products with 10M+ downloads, MoneyControl, CITI Mobile and Experian Credit Score among them, including a live-codebase migration to hybrid Flutter with no release freeze. I specialise in Add-to-App modernisation, Clean Architecture, offline-first data and the full testing pyramid, and I've led teams of up to 7 engineers from architecture through to release.
- Now: building Inspectro, runtime DevTools for React, Next.js, Vue and Angular. Component inspection, render tracking, network activity and SSR execution in one surface.
- Open to: Mobile Architect · Developer Advocate · Developer Relations roles. Immediate joiner.
- Community: Lead Organizer, Flutter Hyderabad (2022 – present).
- Reviewing: Technical Reviewer for Packt Publishing's Android titles (2023 – 2025).
- Fun fact: professional by day, 90s kid by night. Still a huge fan of Cartoon Network and Pogo.
