After six incredible years, I’ve closed the curtains on my chapter at Airbnb.
I’ve had the privilege of working on things I’m deeply passionate about, earning immense trust, and collaborating with some of the most talented people I’ve met. That combination is rare — and I never took it for granted.

You mentioned social media pockets for learning. A quick internet search gives some results, but not all resources are so visible (e.g. the newsletter by @vinaygaba.bsky.social is great, but I have introduced it to many younger colleagues). A great opportunity to shout out some resources :)

🔍 Debugging animation jank in Compose? 90% of devs miss THIS ADB trick (and it changes everything for your performance workflow) 👇
Use this command:
`adb shell screenrecord --bugreport`
It records your app WITH frame-timing overlays. It’s like a slow-mo referee for your UI. 🕵️♂️

1/n I've always believed that the ability to build things was an engineer’s greatest competitive advantage and the reason why they often topped the professional food chain.
This won’t hold true much longer. Building will soon become completely commoditized.
