About Me

I'm Alex aka maxeoneo, a veteran software engineer and technical leader with over 10 years of experience designing and delivering large-scale Android applications. My work is driven by a strong focus on performance, privacy, and developer enablement.

With deep expertise in Kotlin, WebView/native bridging, CI/CD, and architectural transformation, I’ve led cross-functional teams, scaled developer platforms, and shipped user-focused solutions in high-impact environments.

Over the years, I’ve developed a strong passion for mobile and application security. This includes hands-on experience with Android system hardening, secure WebView integration, and hybrid/native sandboxing strategies. I actively stay up to date on modern security principles and platform defenses through continuous self-education.

🚀 Own Apps

Note: First App released under new account (see this blog post)

• Antitheft protection (Anti‑theft alarm, Originally July 2021)

Note: Google closed my developer account in 2025 due to inactivity (see my blog post), so the apps are no longer available for new downloads. However, here are the links to the original Play Store listings

In the past I wrote a couple of Android apps and released some of them on Google Play:

• Local Ventilation Controller (April 2024)
• Rolling Dice (Dice simulator, July 2021)
• ACalc (Basic calculator, July 2021)

🛠 Skills

• Languages: Kotlin, Java, C++, Python, TypeScript, Rust
• Mobile: Android, Jetpack Compose, Kotlin Multiplatform Mobile (KMM), WebView, JNI, Qt, Angular
• Architecture: Clean Architecture, Modularization, Native/Web API design
• Build & Tooling: Gradle, CMake, Git, Jenkins, GitHub Actions, Docker, Appium, AWS Device Farm

🫆 Security Experience & Interests

• Applied secure coding practices in WebView/native bridging, including permission gating, input validation, and lifecycle isolation.
• Hands-on experience with Android Device Owner mode for enterprise-grade app management and kiosk deployments.
• Familiar with Android platform security models such as sandboxing, SELinux, permission scopes and scoped storage.
• Ongoing personal study in Android malware analysis, network interception techniques, and hybrid app threat modeling.

📈 Selected Projects

• Hybrid App Platform Migration Led the transformation of native Android and iOS apps to a hybrid model using Angular within WebView. Designed and maintained secure native APIs, optimized performance and lifecycle integration, and enabled seamless cross-platform feature delivery.
• Automated Testing Infrastructure Built automated testing pipelines for a web apps running within a WebView on mobile apps using Appium and AWS Device Farm. Reduced manual QA time and improved confidence in release cycles across multiple teams and hardware-dependent features.
• Kotlin Multiplatform Migration Developed a Kotlin Multiplatform prototype to replace Qt-based apps. Created cross-target components for Android, iOS, and JVM. Investigated hybrid coexistence strategy to enable phased migration.
• Food Quality Control App Designed and developed Android-first app for food quality assurance with device management, REST synchronization, and global deployment across 5,000+ devices.
• Android Device Owner Deployment Engineered Android app deployments for Testo tablets in kiosk / device-owner mode, enabling secure administration, controlled updates, and remote app management. Designed the rollout process for mass configuration in production environments.
