At Eventbrite, I lead Android development for several high-impact product initiatives that power organizer experiences across payments, ticketing, and platform reliability.
AI-Assisted Test Automation
Integrated Cursor AI MCP into the automation framework to generate meaningful Appium tests from a single prompt—reducing test creation time by 75% (4 hrs → 1 hr) and boosting team efficiency by 40–50% through an AI-assisted workflow.
Tap to Pay (Canada)
Led Android-side implementation of Tap-to-Pay, enabling organizers to accept contactless card payments directly on their devices. Fixed a critical Stripe SDK caching issue to ensure secure transactions and supported a nationwide rollout by Feb 2025, exceeding planned GTF targets ($22 K vs $15–17 K) through 310 + ticket sales.
Guest List Revival
Delivered the end-to-end relaunch of Guest List, restoring VIP and invite-only attendee management. The bug-free release is projected to recover ~$640 K in lost revenue and prevent ~$500 K at risk. Enhanced organizer workflows and analytics, re-engaging Powerhouse Hosts and top creators.
Timed Entry
Led Android-side development of Timed Entry for multi-timeslot events, improving check-in and analytics. Delivered +66 % adoption, +63 % paid ticket growth, and +48.5 % YoY GTF uplift, reducing manual workarounds for organizers.
App Rebranding
Executed a complete UI and asset overhaul under tight deadlines with zero regressions, collaborating closely with Design and Brand teams.
Platform Monitoring & Reliability
Implemented Datadog monitoring integrated with PagerDuty + Slack using Terraform; authored documentation and led KT sessions for mobile teams. Automated 100 % of happy-path tests across key flows (Dashboard, Orders, Check-In) and wired them into CI/CD pipelines. Led debugging and resolution of critical production issues including barcode search failures, lifecycle crashes, and currency mismatches.

At MoEngage, I contributed to the Android SDK powering personalized engagement and marketing automation for global brands. I developed core SDK features, improved hybrid framework integration, and strengthened reliability across native and hybrid apps.
In-App Nudges (End-to-End)
Led complete development of non-intrusive in-app nudges — lightweight contextual banners that help brands guide onboarding, highlight features, and run promotions without interrupting user experience. Implemented template rendering, positioning logic, targeting hooks, analytics events, and A/B/locales support, ensuring accessibility, theming, and full View compatibility.
Delay Support for In-App/Nudges
Developed time- and event-gated campaign delivery (“After Delay” support), enabling marketers to trigger in-app messages after app startup or specific user actions. Utilized WorkManager, lifecycle awareness, and offline persistence (TTL/expiry, backoff policies) to ensure reliable message rendering even after process restarts or connectivity loss.
Hybrid Frameworks & Capacitor SDK
Built and maintained Android plugin APIs for the MoEngage Capacitor SDK, bridging configuration and event data between JavaScript and native layers. Authored integration documentation and created a sample Ionic app that reduced hybrid setup complexity and onboarding time for partner teams.
Diagnostics, Support & Release Quality
Resolved complex issues across Hybrid + Native environments (webviews, activity lifecycles, proguard/R8, network constraints). Added structured logs, debug overlays, and reproducible sample cases to improve troubleshooting. Strengthened SDK reliability by adding unit/instrumentation tests, enforcing lint and API surface checks, and tightening CI release pipelines.

At SportsApp, I contributed to the complete redesign and modernization of the Android platform — transforming legacy code, improving performance, and launching multiple user-facing features that enhanced engagement and reliability.
App Architecture Modernization
Led a phased migration from MVC → MVVM using Dagger DI and a repository/data-source pattern. Modularized the Home and Auth modules to simplify testing, accelerate feature delivery, and reduce coupling across components.
Home Screen & Authentication Redesigns
Rebuilt the Home experience with MVVM + Room caching, improving time-to-content and navigation across modules like Training, Shots, and Campaigns.
Redesigned login and OTP flows with robust error handling, retry/backoff, and client-side validation, significantly reducing authentication failures and user drop-offs.
Key Feature Development
Delivered several core product modules:
Post Collections – enabled users to save and share collections with offline sync, driving return visits and deeper engagement.
Training (OTT) – integrated long-form video playback and taxonomy for content discovery; improved playback reliability.
Campaigns & Shots – launched campaign surfaces and a lightweight feed with an Android App Widget for glanceable re-engagement.
AskMe Redesign – implemented threaded discussions, mentions, and moderation tools to foster constructive conversations.
Creation & Reliability Improvements
Built in-app camera (Camera2) and an image editor (crop, filter, annotate) to expand creator tools and boost UGC output.
Improved app reliability by adding unit/UI tests, crash/ANR triage playbooks, and network contract validation for REST endpoints.

During my internship at SportsApp, I worked on early-stage Android features and internal tooling, contributing to camera functionality, API integration, and performance improvements that supported the product’s growth phase.
In-App Camera Development
Prototyped the Camera2 capture and preview pipeline, enabling reliable image and video capture across 85%+ of supported Android devices. Focused on optimizing latency, frame handling, and compatibility with various hardware configurations.
Feed & Notifications APIs
Implemented and tested feed and notifications REST endpoints, applying structured API contracts and error-handling strategies that reduced network error rates by 22%.
Instrumentation & Debugging
Added analytics instrumentation and debugging hooks around login and Home modules, improving monitoring and reducing MTTR (Mean Time to Resolution) by ~30% for authentication and feed issues.
