About Me

I'm a Full-Stack Mobile Engineer and React Native Developer with 3+ years of experience building high-performance iOS and Android applications alongside Next.js and NestJS backends. Currently, I work on a production SaaS platform, specializing in AI SaaS Integration and Multi-Provider LLM Orchestration (Anthropic, OpenAI, Gemini).

My core expertise lies in building complex Real-Time Systems and implementing Offline-First Architecture with robust Data Synchronization strategies. I have hands-on experience with native device capabilities like Geolocation/Google Maps API, Camera Integration, and deep performance tuning through Gesture Handling (Animated API) and Xcode Configuration.

I'm passionate about the entire product lifecycle — from Schema Design and Authentication Hardening to iOS/Android Build Automation. Whether it's configuring In-App Purchases / Payment Gateways or architecting a distributed backend, I take a structured approach to problem-solving, moving ideas from prototype to production seamlessly.

Work

What I've Worked On

Version-Controlled Artifact Storage

Added versioned S3 key tracking with on-demand upload and fallback resolution, cutting generation latency and covered with full-stack parity tests.

Multi-Provider LLM Abstraction

Unified Anthropic, OpenAI, Gemini, and Azure OpenAI behind a singleton client layer, normalising token usage across streaming and non-streaming paths.

Automated PDF Report Generation

Built rich, data-driven PDF exports — trend charts, revenue projections, competitor data — solving real pagination and layout edge cases.

Two-Token Session Architecture

Implemented access/refresh token session management with silent refresh-and-retry on expiry across a large Redux-Saga codebase.

Real-Time Messaging & Presence

Built WebSocket-powered chat with match-based session unlocking and live delivery for a social discovery app.

Invite & Referral Funnel

Built a cookie-based invite flow with edge middleware, threading invite state through pricing, CTAs, and onboarding without exposing it in the URL.

Location-Aware Discovery

Implemented proximity-based recommendation UI with swipe gestures, maps integration, and a coin-based premium unlock economy.

Security Hardening

Applied anti-enumeration patterns on auth endpoints, validated third-party SDK responses, and sanitised LLM-generated HTML/CSS to prevent XSS.

Admin Tooling & Observability

Built internal admin dashboards with Redis-cached stats, secure credential bootstrapping, and normalised logging across services.
