Experience
• Contributed to Fox's iOS video player for streaming apps, improving overall stability and maintainability.
• Internalized an external video metadata service into the core player, centralizing ~90% of show information and streamlining how the app accesses data for streaming.
• Enabled video playback directly from a link (URL), reducing friction in testing and debugging new streams.
• Collaborated with cross-functional teams to test, debug, and fix video playback issues.
• Collaborated with a team of 43 members to deliver high-quality, innovative solutions in a research-driven environment.
• Developed and maintained AttenDex (Tracksheet) — an iOS and Android attendance tracker for Edumarshal users with real-time monitoring, analytics, and secure auth. 3.26K+ installs, 4.15 rating, 1.3K daily / 5K monthly active users.
• Contributed to Bytepad, an educational app with 5K+ downloads, by integrating a question paper database, enhancing UI, and expanding reach to Web and Android platforms.
Projects
A productivity-focused iOS app that helps users track their daily LeetCode problem-solving progress through home screen widgets. Uses SwiftUI WidgetKit for live stats, App Groups + UserDefaults for real-time data sharing between the app and widget, and timeline-based background refresh.
Stack
A high-performance, MVVM-based feature set built for Apple's in-house productivity suite, boosting user engagement. Integrated SwiftKeychainWrapper for securely storing sensitive data, and implemented audio playback controls (play, pause, skip) using AVKit.
Stack
A SwiftUI navigation package with custom transitions, deep linking, and programmatic navigation for flexible app flows. A modular navigation service supports stack tracking and multiple operations (push, pop, replace) for maintainable code, with fade, slide, and scale animations.
