Top SchoolStuart Gilbert is a Lead Software Engineer and seasoned Android specialist with 11 years of experience building scalable, high-performance mobile applications across e-commerce, media playback, and consumer products. Based in San Francisco, he blends deep expertise in Kotlin, Jetpack libraries, modular architecture and clean code with a strong focus on developer productivity, automation, testing, and analytics. He has repeatedly served as the sole Android engineer to establish foundations and later scale teams—most recently progressing from individual contributor roles to leading engineering at Aimi and now HP IQ.
