Vinod Patil | Software Developer

Hi, I'm Vinod Patil.

A

Self-driven, quick starter, passionate programmer with a curious mind who enjoys solving a complex and challenging real-world problems.

About

I am an Android Developer with hands-on experience building and maintaining production-scale mobile applications at a YC-backed startup. I specialize in Kotlin-based Android development, working extensively with Jetpack Compose, multi-module architecture, and Clean Architecture to deliver scalable, maintainable code.

At Swipe, I’ve refactored large, tightly-coupled features, migrated legacy XML screens to Compose, resolved performance issues and ANRs, and maintained crash-free users above 99.8% using Coroutines, Flow, and Firebase Crashlytics. I actively collaborate with product, backend, and support teams to ship reliable features.

Beyond Android, I build end-to-end systems using Node.js, Express, and PostgreSQL (Supabase), design clean REST APIs, and work with real-time sync, background processing, and modern tooling. I enjoy solving complex problems, optimizing systems, and building products that impact real users.
