About

I’m Majid Ghafouri, a senior Android developer and team lead with around 15 years of experience building production apps across mobile, tablet, Android TV, Fire TV, and automotive. My day-to-day work centers on Kotlin and Jetpack Compose, using MVVM with Coroutines/Flow, and I’ve supported large live products with a strong focus on backward compatibility and clean architecture.

Over the years, I’ve also built and led Android teams and startups—co-founding a crypto exchange (as CTO) and later leading a 6-person Android team at Golrang. I also have an M.Sc. in Artificial Intelligence focused on NLP and speech processing, which I bring into projects where machine learning ideas are relevant, along with a professional background spanning REST APIs, performance tuning, testing, and mentoring.
