I thrive in Agile environments, collaborating with backend, product, and QA teams to build scalable apps, troubleshoot issues, and release features to both the App Store and Play Store. I value clean architecture, design patterns, and SOLID principles to deliver maintainable code, while driving quality through unit and UI tests and robust CI/CD processes.
