• During my time at Unacademy, I played a key role in the Android platform team, where I implemented several initiatives to improve app stability. I automated the crash reporting process by developing a script that fetched crash data from Bugsnag and mapped it to the respective pods. This automation, integrated with the Jenkins CI/CD pipeline, facilitated quick identification and resolution of crashes, ensuring the overall stability of the app. Additionally, I established a comprehensive unit testing framework for the Unacademy Learning app, which included setting up templates and conducting tech talks to improve the team's testing practices and enhance code coverage. Furthermore, I collaborated with the team to optimize costs by reducing the number of network API calls, and implementing caching mechanisms. I also integrated tools such as Kover, Singular, and Bugsnag for the Unacademy Learning App for efficient code coverage, marketing analytics, and error reporting.

• As a member of the feature team at BYJU'S, I contributed significantly to the development of flagship apps, namely Byju's Lab app and Byju's Auth app. In Byju's Lab app, I played a crucial role in building the app from scratch. I developed the core UI, including a custom RecyclerView for a carousel-like view, providing an interactive and engaging learning experience for students. I developed this project utilizing Kotlin and implementing the MVVM architecture with coroutines, Dagger Hilt, Retrofit, ViewPager, Tab Layout, and Navigation Graph. In Byju's Auth app, I played a pivotal role in developing the authentication feature that enables users to access Byju's group of apps using OAuth on Byju's proprietary tablet. I was instrumental in creating the UI for the user's profile, offline-first capabilities using RoomDB and WorkManager, and resolving critical bugs that impacted end-users. I also utilized Content Providers for data sharing & integrity across all the apps within the tablet and conducted comprehensive unit and UI testing using Mockito and Espresso.
• Moreover, I played a vital role in ensuring the security and integrity of Byju's Learning App by developing measures to prevent third-party modifications and unauthorized usage. I conducted extensive research to detect cloned versions of the app and implemented approaches to crash the app when cloning was detected. My work was the first step towards enhancing the app's security features, effectively mitigating the distribution of modified versions and safeguarding the content and intellectual property.

• In my tenure at Sling Media, currently known as Dish Network Technologies, I contributed to the development of key features on the Airtv Player and created an Android app for auto firmware downloads. In the Voice Control Feature on the Airtv Player, I integrated Dialogflow and Android's speech package to enable users to control the app via voice commands, reducing reliance on traditional remote keypads. This feature garnered a patent filing and enhanced the search capabilities of media streaming devices. Additionally, I developed an Android app for auto firmware downloads, implementing job scheduling and MD5 hash verification to ensure accurate and secure firmware updates for multimedia players.
