Google AdMob is a mobile app monetization platform that allows users to generate revenue easily with in-app ads, actionable insights, and powerful, easy-to-use tools.

For this project, I designed, developed, and deployed an offline feature that allows the ads to be prefetched and shown even when there is no internet connection on the device. I set the back end in C++ and added some code changes to the core SDK, written in JavaScript, and the Android SDK, written in Java.

The most challenging part of this project was meeting with multiple teams spread across various time zones to devise a solution that would not break any existing systems.

Double Click TV Ads provides an SDK to the set-top box providers, which allows them to monetize certain TV Channels using google ads. I designed and implemented the SDK. Later, the project got canceled despite generating revenue because it didn't align with the company's long-term strategy.

ONIX is the standard for rich book metadata, a publisher like Penguin Random House uses this format to update the metadata of the book in the audible library. Previously it was done by emailing the ONIX file to the coordinators, which wasted lots of human hours. I designed and developed a new service that automatically detects the update on the ONIX file and ingests it into the content management system UI. The coordinator can look into the metadata update and apply it directly.
