Hi, I'm Andrew

I'm an experienced software engineer who loves to build public-facing apps that make people happy. Have a look at my work so far, and let me know if you think we can do something better together.

Mobile Development

I'm currently specializing in native Android development with Kotlin and Jetpack Compose, with an eye toward game development with Unreal 5. Here are some of the projects I'm most proud of.

MySynchrony Mobile App

My team and I built the 4.0 version of the MySynchrony mobile app, which allows Synchrony customers with multiple branded credit cards to manage all of them in one place. This update involved a complete refactor of the app to Jetpack Compose and MVVM architecture, a variety of feature work, and a significant increase in test coverage.

MyKey TVM

My first professional project was the software for a ticket vending machine made for IndyGo, Indianapolis's public transportation agency. My employer, Flowbird, built an account-based ticketing solution called MyKey for Indy's new express bus line, of which this machine is a key part. Having to work with proprietary hardware and our custom fork of open-source Android taught me a lot about working with low-level APIs, and developing such a complex app forced me improve my coding style and learn more about proper Android architecture. Naturally, I also had to learn a lot about encryption and security to make the machine process payments and pass updated account info to the back-end.
