2. Performance & Device Optimization :

- Diagnose and resolve mobile performance bottlenecks, including :

1. App startup time, FPS drops, memory leaks.

2. Heating issues, over-rendering, and expensive widget rebuilds.

3. Battery optimization, efficient network calls, caching strategy.

- Run in-depth profiling using tools like Dart DevTools, Android Profiler, and Xcode Instruments.

3. OTT-Specific Engineering :

- Optimize video playback workflows for low-latency streaming.

- Implement efficient background processes for downloads, DRM, content sync, and push notifications.

4. Product & User Experience Ownership :

- Collaborate closely with Product, Backend, and Video Engineering teams.

- Convert business/product requirements into high-performance technical solutions.

- Ensure UI/UX consistency across platforms while maintaining performance budgets.

5. Code Quality & Leadership :

- Write clean, extensible, and maintainable code with strong adherence to SOLID and reactive programming principles.

- Review code for mid-level and junior engineers; act as a mentor across teams.
