Turkey, Istanbul
11.2023 - Current
- Tracked build size (under 150MB) and memory usage (under 1GB) using tools (AndroidStudio, MemoryProfiler, ProjectAuditor) by comparing deltas against previous release to identify and fix regressions. Separately, implemented ~300MB memory optimization initiative, reducing memory-related crashes (~21%).
- Developed key features (Preboosters, Superboosters, Invite Friends) that increased average playtime (~16%) and boosted new user ARPU (~11%).
- Identified and resolved prod-issues post-rollout by analyzing user behavior data (BigQuery) and system logs (Coralogix), pinpointing root causes like API timeouts and implementing fixes to ensure smooth user experiences.
- Monitored rollout version-over-version across releases by comparing build metrics (API latency, error rates, memory usage) using analytics solutions (Coralogix, Crashlytics, Looker, New Relic).
