Where I’ve worked

1. 2025 – now

   Senior Software Engineer, Android

   · Bengaluru

   Leading a team of three building on-device fraud detection, which flags 20M+ fraud messages a day across India and is rolling out to new markets. Proposed and built the on-device ML platform behind it (BERT-style models at 20ms p95), and a shared Kotlin pre-processing library that lifted agreement between the phone and data science’s pipeline from ~80% to ~99%. Proposed the remote rules engine behind 500M+ Message IDs a day, which product, ads and enterprise teams change without a release, and led the app’s move to Material 3.

2. 2021 – 2025

   Software Engineer, Android

   · Bengaluru

   Co-built Message ID, a Caller ID-style SMS overlay drawn with Compose straight through WindowManager, at 350M+ daily impressions; then built the infrastructure for its LLM summaries, made without any message content leaving the phone, which took it to 500M+ a day. Scaled Smart SMS from 1–2 to 15+ business partners, sped up app startup on every incoming SMS by cutting parser init from 700ms to 450ms, and shipped Truecaller’s first production Jetpack Compose screen.

3. 2019 – 2021

   Software Engineer, Android TV

   · Nagpur

   Owned the player UI and parental controls for Verizon’s Stream TV launcher. Made trick-play thumbnails render 60% faster by prefetching them in the background based on how people seek, and cut startup CPU overhead by 30%.
