I have been deeply involved in enhancing and developing the 𝐙𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐨'𝐬 𝐀𝐧𝐝𝐫𝐨𝐢𝐝 app, contributing across multiple PODs and gaining significant expertise in key areas :
𝐇𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐏𝐚𝐠𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐒𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐜𝐡 𝐏𝐚𝐠𝐞 𝐎𝐰𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩 :
I manage the Home and Search Pages (including Auto-suggestion) of the 𝐙𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐨 app, ensuring a smooth user experience and high performance. I’ve shipped multiple projects in this POD.
𝐒𝐮𝐩𝐞𝐫 𝐃𝐲𝐧𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐜 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐡 𝐅𝐢𝐥𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬 [𝐌𝐚𝐣𝐨𝐫] :
Successfully developed and launched a dynamic dish filters feature on the Search Page, now live on the Zomato Play Store. This project revamped 𝐙𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐨'𝐬 𝐟𝐢𝐥𝐭𝐞𝐫 system, allowing users to apply multiple filters across different categories to find the best restaurants. It was a complex project that enhanced my skills in problem-solving, user-centric design, and creating a seamless experience.
𝐆𝐞𝐧 𝐀𝐈 [𝐌𝐚𝐣𝐨𝐫] :
Contributed to a key feature for large orders, where users provide inputs such as the number of guests, expected budget, preferred cuisine types, and special instructions for restaurants. This data is processed by an ML model (took help from 𝐆𝐨𝐨𝐠𝐥𝐞'𝐬 𝐠𝐞𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐢 on BE side) to generate curated cart suggestions tailored for large orders, allowing users to directly review, checkout, and place their orders seamlessly.
𝐋𝐨𝐠𝐢𝐧 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐜𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐄𝐧𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 :
Optimized user onboarding by enhancing login functionalities, including 𝐆𝐨𝐨𝐠𝐥𝐞, 𝐅𝐚𝐜𝐞𝐛𝐨𝐨𝐤, 𝐄𝐦𝐚𝐢𝐥, 𝐏𝐡𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐎𝐓𝐏, and the innovative 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭𝐬𝐀𝐩𝐩 𝐎𝐓𝐏 feature. Successfully reduced a 𝟓% 𝐝𝐫𝐨𝐩-𝐨𝐟𝐟 𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐧𝐞𝐰 𝐮𝐬𝐞𝐫𝐬 by integrating WhatsApp OTP, improving the overall login experience and user retention.
𝐂𝐫𝐨𝐬𝐬-𝐏𝐎𝐃 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐛𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 :
Collaborated with other PODs like 𝐌𝐞𝐧𝐮, 𝐂𝐫𝐲𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐥, and 𝐂𝐚𝐫𝐭, contributing to diverse features and strengthening cross-functional collaboration.

𝐒𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐧𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐭 𝐓𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐑𝐞𝐩𝐨𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲 :
Implemented screenshot testing to ensure UI consistency across the Zomato app, integrating UI snippet responses to prevent breaking changes. This significantly contributed to maintaining repository stability across 𝐁𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐤𝐢𝐭 and 𝐙𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐨 platforms.
𝐓𝐨𝐩 𝟏𝟎 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐡𝐞𝐬 𝐅𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 :
Developed and implemented the Top 10 Dishes feature, where users can view the most popular dishes when searching and navigating to the Dish tab in the Zomato app. While currently disabled due to ongoing iterations, this feature laid the groundwork for enhancing user engagement in the search flow.
