About me
Hi, I’m Ajit Goud, an Android Engineer with 4.5+ years of experience building high-performance, scalable apps and modular SDKs. I specialize in Kotlin/Java, Bluetooth communication (Classic & BLE), voice AI (VAD, wake word), and React Native integrations via TurboModules.
At Jio Tesseract, I led development for smart glasses features:
- Audio streaming (RFCOMM), WebRTC PoCs, wake word detection (Picovoice, Sensory)
- AI assistant integration, real-time translation, visual search
- IMC 2024 demo delivery with seamless voice-controlled workflows
- SDKs and companion apps with BLE pairing, media sync, AI interactions
Previously at SuperUs Systems, I delivered Android + BLE solutions for ESL systems and signage, and built a ReactJS/Fabric.js canvas tool for template design.
I'm passionate about crafting intuitive, future-ready experiences through clean architecture, robust communication stacks, and AI-driven workflows. Skilled in Agile environments with JIRA, Git, and Confluence.

Software Engineer
NeoSoft - Mumbai
Jio Tesseract
- Development of a modular Android SDK for smart glasses, aiming to encapsulate core components like device communication, audio handling, settings, and APIs to support scalable feature integration.
- Integrated the native Android SDK with a React Native app using TurboModules, enabling high-performance cross-platform interaction.
- Implemented audio streaming via Bluetooth RFCOMM as part of a PoC to emulate smart glass behavior for mock devices.
- Designed and built voice-driven workflows, where user prompts were captured via mic, with Silero VAD detecting silence (end of prompt), and routed to AI for real-time interaction.
- Enabled contextual voice features such as music control (Spotify), assistant responses, navigation, calls, and notifications—driven by natural language prompts.
- Spearheaded feature readiness and delivery for the IMC 2024 showcase, demonstrating cutting-edge capabilities like voice AI, visual search, multi-language support, and live video streaming—contributing to a highly successful product demo.
- Implemented wake word detection using Picovoice, later enhanced with Sensory SDK, enabling passive, hands-free voice activation.
- Developed Bluetooth Classic and BLE-based pairing for seamless connectivity between glasses and the companion app.
- Built custom camera features for image/video capture, and integrated LiveKit for low-latency video streaming.
- Conducted a WebRTC-based PoC for reliable data transfer using negative acknowledgments (NACK), ensuring lossless transmission of large files.
- Authored key architecture documents (HLD, SBS) and conducted internal knowledge sharing sessions on Bluetooth, audio processing, wake word logic, and native-module integration.
- Contributed to competitor analysis by reverse-engineering key app flows to inform internal product decisions.
