Qapital is a US-based fintech app that lets users automate their savings with rule-based triggers — rounding up spare change, saving when they spend at a coffee shop, or hitting fitness goals. The app manages over $3 billion saved for its customers with an average of $4,800 in annual savings per user.
I joined the Android team at a pivotal time: the entire UI layer was built on legacy Views, and the team needed to modernise toward Jetpack Compose. I led the introduction and adoption of Compose across the team — from internal tech talks and code standards through to the first production screens shipped in the new paradigm.
A major engineering challenge was the KYC (Know Your Customer) flow — a regulatory requirement for connecting bank accounts and student loan services. I integrated multiple third-party SDK providers, managing the authentication handshakes, data-consent screens, and deep-linking back into the app. This unlocked a key product investment milestone and was critical for US market compliance.
Beyond infrastructure, I contributed to a series of A/B experiments across the onboarding and savings-rule setup flows. By iterating on copy, step ordering, and UX framing, we measurably improved activation rates and reduced first-session drop-off for new users.
