// Engineering Background

11+ Years of Apple Ecosystem Leadership

High-Performance Mobile Architect

With over 11 years of engineering excellence in the Apple ecosystem, I architect and build enterprise-scale iOS and tvOS applications. Having delivered core video playback engines and high-traffic streaming features for major media platforms like SonyLIV and Tegna, as well as high-conversion e-commerce apps for Fabindia and Purplle, I bridge deep low-level AVFoundation/HLS video pipeline optimization with elegant SwiftUI visual design.

Over the past decade, I have spearheaded the delivery of flagship consumer applications across iOS, tvOS, and macOS. My expertise spans low-level media player framework extensions, high-concurrency video streaming optimization, and building robust e-commerce checkout funnels.
