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.

10+ years Professional mobile and software delivery experience.
5M+ downloads Fintech Android work on a large-scale consumer app.
Thousands of devices Field optimization and synchronization work across buildings, hospitals, airports, and signage environments.
Android depth, KMP/CMP-aware Native Android depth with KMP/CMP product work, earlier hybrid apps, and practical iOS delivery support.

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.

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.

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.
