- State Management: Built modular state layer across 15+ screens leveraging Riverpod 2.0 (Notifier, AsyncNotifier, family providers).
- Feature Engines: Engineered Money Hub (multi-account tracking, balance transfers, 30-day predictive cash flow), Life Engine (projects with budget health statuses, asset & warranty tracking), and Contextual Life Timeline.
- Smart Ingestion & Security: Built OCR receipt scanner and natural language parser for automatic expense logging with user confirmation previews; integrated biometric security (Fingerprint / Face ID).
Full-stack contributions to the open-source low-code platform and execution engine. All source repositories are public and auditable on GitHub.
- Authored C# backend microservices, ServiceStack plugins, and custom JavaScript frontend components.
- Built dynamic query parsers, PDF templating, and multi-tenant schema isolation layers.
