About

🚀 Lead Engineer & GDE (Android & Firebase) with 8+ years building world-class mobile apps at scale for platforms like Zalando, Gojek, and Disney+ Hotstar. At Zalando, I lead a cross-functional mobile team powering search, catalog, and brand integrations (Nike, Sephora, Adidas) for 11M+ users. I recently launched an AI-powered assistant backed by our in-house LLM, driving personalized shopping experiences. I specialize in scalable architecture, server-driven UI, and launching performant, accessible apps. Whether it’s migrating to Jetpack Compose, optimizing Android TV performance, or expanding to new European markets, I bring a blend of speed, vision, and user obsession to every project. 🌍 I’m also an international speaker (Droidcon Berlin, London, Italy, Singapore...), Women Techmakers Ambassador, and a proud advocate for community-driven learning. 🔍 Passionate about: developer experience, elegant architecture, inclusive leadership, and cross-platform innovation.

Senior Android Engineer

Jun 2022 – Jul 2024 · 2 yrs 1 mo · Berlin, Germany · On-site

I’m a passionate and results-driven Engineering Lead at Zalando, where I lead the Core Development team behind the heart of the Zalando Fashion App.
I focus on personalization, recommendations, search, and browsing experiences that serve millions of users across Europe. My team builds foundational capabilities that enable other Zalando teams to deliver high-quality features with speed and consistency.
With 8+ years of experience across Android, mobile architecture, and developer experience, I thrive on identifying and adopting the right technology at the right time. I’ve driven the large-scale adoption of Jetpack Compose, Kotlin Coroutines, and modern Android best practices across Zalando’s vast mobile codebase.
I believe in empowering teams through clarity, context, and clean architecture — and in creating platforms, not just features.
Outside of work, I’m a Google Developer Expert, WTM Ambassador, and frequent speaker at global conferences like Droidcon Berlin, Lisbon, Singapore, and more. I enjoy sharing what I learn — from building AI-powered assistants to scaling frontend systems — to help others grow.
