I'm Kapil Maharjan, a Lead Mobile Engineer with 12+ years of experience building native and cross‑platform applications at consumer scale, including high-traffic products serving millions of users across multi-brand enterprise environments. I have deep expertise in iOS (SwiftUI), Android (Jetpack Compose), Flutter, and React Native, with full ownership of the mobile product life cycle from architecture roadmaps and modularization decisions through App Store releases, phased rollouts, and rollback strategies. I actively lead and mentor distributed engineering teams, raise the bar on code reviews, CI/CD standards, and observability, and I’m passionate about integrating AI-assisted tooling into development workflows (e.g., GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Claude Code) to accelerate delivery while maintaining quality and security.
