Senior Mobile Engineer with 10+ years building secure, high-volume money movement applications for a regulated fintech platform serving 1.8M+ customers with millions of daily transactions. I focus on the parts of transfer apps that must be correct—payment gateway/switch integration, beneficiary management, transaction state handling, timeouts/failures/reversals, and receipts/statement views that reconcile with the ledger. I build security in from the client side (biometrics, hardware-backed key/token storage, AES encryption, TLS certificate pinning) and ship natively in Kotlin/Java on Android and in Flutter for iOS/Android. I work with PCI-DSS and RBI/NPCI requirements, embedding KYC onboarding and AML-aligned transaction controls into the product while maintaining high reliability (99.97% crash-free sessions) through strong observability and production issue triage.
