Bio
Enrique ☕ López Mañas
The keyword to define Koji’s stance is excellence. He has excellent technical skills which do not come alone: he has a great attitude as a software engineer and a colleague. Koji ensures that some of our projects made it to the end thanks ultimately to him. He has an independent and go-getter attitude, being able to work at an excellent level of performance without any sort of supervision. I would put working with Koji as creating new expectations when the former expectations were already high. I only have positive words for him, and I can wholeheartedly and personally endorse him for any project. Koji has been a great, if not the greatest, asset to our team, and any team who can hire whim will be lucky to have him as a Senior Android Engineer.

Recomendo ele, pois sei que será um grande profissional em qualquer equipe que ele estiver. Sucesso sempre!

This SDK is built using Kotlin Multiplatform and provides an easy way to access OpenAI APIs. It also included iOS, Android, and JVM samples that I personally created to showcase how to utilize this SDK on each supported platform; ● Wrote an article on the YML Medium platform to promote the Y-Chat SDK; ● Assisted in client pitches by doing proof-of-concepts (POCs) and delivering demos for their presentations. These demos were developed for both Android and iOS platforms and were showcased to clients such as Toyota, Sutter Health, and Walmart Health.
