About Me

"I've shipped ~100 production releases, integrated 20+ REST APIs and 10+ third-party SDKs, and built real-time communication systems now used by over 1.15 million people."

For 6 years I've specialized in the hardest problems in mobile: real-time communication systems at scale — live chat, one-to-one audio/video calling, and multi-user live streaming — all shipped, all in production, all battle-tested at 1M+ user scale.

At Dhawala Online Solutions, I led a 4–6 person Android team for Suvich, taking it from ground zero to 1M+ installs with 8,000+ reviews and a 4.5+ Play Store rating — delivering approximately 100 bi-weekly production releases over 4 years. I owned the entire real-time stack: Sendbird and Firebase for chat, Agora SDK for calls and live sessions, and a concurrent order queue system engineered to handle simultaneous requests without race conditions.

I work with Clean Architecture and MVVM not because it sounds good on a resume, but because I've seen what happens to apps that don't. I write Kotlin code that teams can actually maintain, extend, and be proud of six months later.

Currently at AstroSansaar, leading Android across 3 products (AstroSansaar, Krishi Suvidha, LegalFind). Open to freelance projects and remote full-time roles worldwide.

What I Can Build for You

Whether you need a feature built, an architecture set up from scratch, or an existing app rescued — here's exactly what I deliver. Every engagement comes with clean, documented, production-ready code.

💬
Real-Time Chat Integration

End-to-end in-app messaging built to handle thousands of concurrent users. I've shipped this at scale using multiple real-time stacks.

  • WebSocket-based messaging with reconnect logic
  • Firebase Realtime DB chat implementation
  • Sendbird SDK integration & customization
  • Typing indicators, read receipts, media messages
📹
Audio / Video Calling

Production-grade 1-to-1 and group calling using Agora SDK — handling edge cases like background states, poor network, and device switching.

  • Agora SDK audio & video call integration
  • Call state management across app lifecycles
  • Notification-based call pickup (foreground & background)
  • Network resilience and reconnection handling
🎙️
Live Streaming Features

Interactive live sessions with multi-user broadcasting. Shipped for astrology consultation apps with real-time host/audience interaction.

  • Agora interactive live streaming (host + audience)
  • Real-time viewer count & audience interaction
  • Gift/reaction systems during live sessions
  • Order queue management for concurrent sessions
🏗️
Android App Architecture

Clean, scalable foundations that survive team growth and product pivots. Ideal for startups about to scale or teams inheriting messy codebases.

  • MVVM + Clean Architecture setup
  • Kotlin Coroutines & Flow migration
  • Jetpack components: ViewModel, Navigation, Room
  • Code review & architecture consulting
🔌
SDK & API Integration

Third-party integrations done right — with proper error handling, token refresh flows, and clean abstraction layers your team can work with.

  • Firebase (Auth, FCM, Analytics, Crashlytics)
  • Sentry crash monitoring setup
  • Payment gateway & social login integration
  • REST API integration with Retrofit + OkHttp
Performance Optimization

App too slow? Too many crashes? I specialize in diagnosing and fixing the performance issues that kill user retention and Play Store ratings.

  • ANR & crash rate reduction via Android Profiler
  • Memory leak detection and resolution
  • Cold/warm start time optimization
  • Low-bandwidth optimization for emerging markets
