Worked on the Uber Rider app's reservation flow, focusing on airport drop-off trips where timing and reliability are critical. I designed and implemented a flight-based trip experience that allows users to select their flight and automatically calculates the optimal pickup time based on departure, traffic, and airport-specific logic.

Designed and developed a cross-platform cost estimation application for contractors, enabling detailed project budgeting and the generation of professional PDF/Excel reports. I integrated AI capabilities to assist in creating and structuring estimates. Built using Kotlin (KMM), Jetpack Compose, and Firebase, the platform is used in real-world projects to streamline pricing workflows and improve decision-making.

Worked on the Amazon Flex app, focusing on the break management feature for drivers. I designed and implemented functionality supporting both optional and mandatory breaks, including notifications, timers, and back-end integration to enforce compliance with regional labor requirements.

The feature handled real-world constraints such as active deliveries, timing conflicts, and user interruptions, ensuring a smooth and reliable experience. This work improved driver experience and supported better working conditions across a global user base.

Contributed to the design and implementation of the Alexa calling module on Android, migrating the feature to a modern MVVM architecture. I improved performance by around 30%, reduced latency in call-related flows, and enhanced maintainability and scalability of the codebase. I also worked closely with back-end and cross-functional teams to ensure seamless integration and high-quality user experience.
