Senior Android Engineer · Bangalore

Hi, I'm Sushruth S. I build mobile apps that launch fast, crash less & ship on both platforms.

5+ years with Kotlin, Jetpack Compose and Kotlin Multiplatform, shipping logistics apps to Android & iOS at Shadowfax, including one I took over at 20K users that now serves 1M+. I like the unglamorous wins: builds that finish before your coffee does, and crash dashboards that stay boring.
