Senior Android / Mobile Lead
Mobile products that survive the real world.
I build and lead mobile systems with deep Android ownership, iOS-side code contributions, and cross-platform delivery responsibility. Architecture, product thinking, release discipline, and field realities all matter in the way I work.
Profile
Android depth with product and delivery ownership around it.
My strongest lane is senior Android engineering and mobile technical leadership. I am comfortable turning ambiguous product needs into releasable mobile work, coordinating across teams, and keeping long-lived products maintainable under real delivery pressure.
Product Builder
Entrepreneurial, but grounded in delivery.
I see product work as more than writing features. With Refoodio, I am shaping the problem definition, MVP scope, UX decisions, technical stack, and release path while keeping the implementation hands-on. This is not a separate identity from engineering; it is the way I prefer to make mobile architecture useful.
Problem framing
Clarifying the real user friction before committing to screens, APIs, and scope.
MVP discipline
Keeping early releases small enough to ship, but structured enough to evolve.
Technical ownership
Choosing architecture, state, persistence, sync, and release decisions with product risk in mind.
What I Bring
A pragmatic mobile lead profile.
Android architecture and delivery
Kotlin, Java, MVVM/MVI, Coroutines, Flow, Jetpack, Room, WorkManager, Retrofit, Hilt/Dagger, Compose/XML, release follow-up, refactoring, and production debugging.
Regulated and integration-heavy flows
KYC, NFC ID chip reading, biometric verification, QR payments, money transfers, BLE, beacons, maps, serial port/RS232, UDP/TCP, Android box, and field-device work.
Product-minded technical coordination
Requirements clarification, behavior alignment, documentation, stakeholder follow-up, POC support, customer-facing delivery, and cross-functional coordination.
Cross-platform and iOS-aware delivery
Kotlin/Compose Multiplatform product work with Refoodio; earlier hybrid Android/iOS work with Angular, Ionic, and JavaScript; iOS delivery coordination, code-level fixes, Android/iOS behavior alignment, and App Store publishing support.
Portfolio
Selected work across product, architecture, and delivery.
Some products are public, some are enterprise or client-specific. The common thread is mobile software that has to run reliably outside ideal lab conditions.
RefoodioCMP
A Kotlin Multiplatform and Compose Multiplatform kitchen decision product for Android and iOS, focused on reducing food waste, decision fatigue, and inventory entry friction.
I treat it as a product-building exercise, not only a code sample: discovery notes, MVP decisions, UX behavior records, risk checks, and architecture choices are part of the work.
ininal
Senior Android development on financial services used by individual and corporate customers, including KYC, NFC identity verification, biometric integration, QR payment, and money transfer workflows.
Corevo and Bookreen
Led Android development and mobile coordination for signage and workplace products, including shared-codebase client variants, device integrations, field incidents, outsourced iOS follow-up, iOS-side code fixes, Android/iOS alignment, and App Store publishing support.
Pandora X
Built offline-first healthcare Android applications for UK stakeholders with local SQLite storage, synchronization, maps, notifications, and mobile delivery follow-up across Android and iOS implementation.
Keşif Arge
Delivered hybrid Android, iOS, and Windows Phone apps with Angular, Ionic, and JavaScript, plus IoT prototypes involving OpenStreetMap, Bluetooth, NFC research, SMS commands, socket servers, and AWS/Linux support.
Architecture Lens
Where my mobile architecture strengths are clearest.
My strongest fit is mobile architecture, mobile technical leadership, or product-oriented mobile platform work where deep Android expertise is useful, but product thinking, cross-platform delivery, and cross-team coordination also matter.
Comfort zone
Android architecture decisions, modularization discussions, legacy modernization, integration-heavy mobile flows, release stability, production debugging, and mentoring.
Useful bridge
Translating product expectations into mobile behavior, clarifying API and workflow boundaries, documenting tradeoffs, and helping product, backend, QA, and leadership stay aligned.
Honest boundary
My deepest native expertise is Android. My iOS-side experience is practical and delivery-focused: Kotlin/Compose Multiplatform product work targeting iOS, earlier hybrid development, outsourced iOS coordination, code-level fixes, behavior alignment, and App Store support.
Experience
Mobile work shaped by several domains.
ininal
Senior Android Developer for fintech, KYC, NFC identity, payment, and money transfer flows.
Corevo / Bookreen
Senior Android Developer, Scrum Master, and Team Lead across digital signage, workplace products, and Bookreen startup delivery.
Pandora X
Android Developer and Mobile Software Team Leader for UK-focused healthcare mobile products.
Keşif Arge
Mobile Developer and R&D Engineer for hybrid mobile apps, IoT prototypes, and device experiments.
Writing
Poetry keeps my attention close to language and human detail.
Outside engineering, I write poetry and short observational pieces under Şiir Manzaralı Şair on Instagram and X. I keep this part of my identity separate enough to preserve professional focus, but visible enough to show how much I value expression, clarity, rhythm, and empathy.
I look for the same things in code and language: clarity, restraint, rhythm, and the human detail that makes a product feel considered.
Contact
Open to senior Android, mobile technical lead, and mobile architecture conversations.
Based in Istanbul. Comfortable with Turkish and English communication across engineering, product, customer, and leadership contexts.
