Senior Software Development Engineer

Dec 2021 – Present · 4 yrs 6 mos · Gurugram, Haryana, India

Developed a lot of analytics services for tracking resilency and performance of the app. Developed reusable UI components, and frameworks for saving development time.
Highlights - Localisation, google protobufs, amplitude, VIPER-RSA, Server driven UI, Analytics SDK, Apple TV
1. Received rockstar award within 6 months for my contribution for taking major decisions related to handling of localisation.
2. Developed a reusable bottom sheet and configurable button stack.
3. Developed a performance tracking engine for the app which can track the app's
start time and page load times.
4. Reporting device properties to amplitude like available ram, total ram, disk space, processor count, connectivity status, last installed sim vendor etc. These can be used to provide consistent user experience even on low-powered devices.
5. Fixing crashes and improving crash free %.
6. Developed a framework that enables UI components in server driven UI architecture to communicate with each other using pub-sub approach with server driven actions. This enhances reusability of UI components and saves dev effort while implementing such requirements.
7. Implemented form store. Widgets(reusable UI components) can save inputs to the store corresponding to a form id and the form data can be retrieved and uploaded to a server using a server driven action thus saving dev effort required for passing on data from one view to another.
8. Usually developers wait for feedback from users to identify unexpected
production bugs. I developed an event which can report unknown errors to
amplitude along with relevant details. It can surface issues like a blank page,
missing UI components etc. It reduces the identification time thus improving resiliency of the app.
9. Fixed couple of complex concurrency related issues in the app
10. Reporting the position of widgets (analogous to table view cells) and widget items (analogous to collection view cells if widget is a collection view) from client side
