Bio:

Hello World. 🖐🏽 I am Umar Saidu Auna, a passionate and results-driven Mobile Engineer with nearly a decade of technical experience, including 8 years dedicated to designing, developing, and deploying mobile applications using Flutter, Kotlin, and Java. Mobile Development has been a dream for me since my first encounter with it, and I have been committed to improving my craft every day.

I enjoy working with Flutter, Kotlin, Android, Firebase, REST APIs, and exploring anything new and interesting in the world of mobile development for both Android and iOS. My expertise lies in debugging, software design, wire-framing, and a bit of front-end development. I take pride in crafting high-performance, user-centric applications and delivering seamless cross-platform experiences.

Before specializing in Flutter, I honed my skills in native Android development with Java and Kotlin. Currently, I am exploring backend development with the Spring Boot framework, aiming to gain insightful knowledge and build robust backend systems to complement my mobile development skills.

I am also a dedicated mentor and educator. I participated in the Google Developers Exchange Program as a Mentor, where I guided attendees on solving problems, introducing innovative ideas, and staying updated with the latest trends and features in mobile development. Additionally, I mentored Goodtalent labs learners virtually, teaching them the basics of Android Development and guiding them to complete projects showcased at the end of the program.

As the Lead Organizer of GDG Minna (Google Developer Groups Minna) and OSCA Minna (Open Source Community Africa Minna Chapter), I am actively involved in fostering a vibrant developer community.

Career Summary

Creative and results-oriented Mobile Engineer with over 8 years of hands-on experience in building products, with a strong focus on testing, performance, security, and API integration.

I am always eager to adopt and apply technical knowledge to solve problems, drive innovation, and contribute positively to any team or project. My love for mentoring and teaching has allowed me to inspire others on their coding journeys.

In my free time, I enjoy reading, jogging, and traveling to explore new places and perspectives.
