I'm a Computer Scientist at Adobe Acrobat, where I lead growth, engagement, and monetization engineering for Acrobat Android — one of the most-installed Android apps in the world (1B+ installs, 95M+ MAU, Google Play Billing globally).

My work sits at the intersection of mobile architecture and revenue:

• 💳 Payments & subscriptions — I own the Acrobat Android in-app payments stack end-to-end. Recently led the cross-product subscription upgrade / downgrade / cross-grade rollout, shipped Jan 2026.
• 📈 Growth engineering — server-driven paywalls, on-device ML personalization, A/B-tested upsell touchpoints. Drove +35% annual subscription retention and +15% FY24 upsell.
• 🛠️ Mobile DevEx — building the automations that let our Android org ship monetization changes weekly: a Figma design linter, a release-cherry-pick + Jira workflow, a weekly executive KPI digest pipeline.

Mentoring engineers earlier in their careers is also a meaningful share of what I do day-to-day. Earlier at Aon I built CoCubes (50K+ installs, 4.1★) and the Assessment app (150K+ installs, 4.0★). Started at Samsung R&D on Samsung Pay.

Outside Adobe, I take a small number of engagements per quarter — mobile payments architecture audits for consumer apps with >100K MAU. Details: rishabhships.com/consulting. Email me if your subscription stack feels like it has hidden revenue leakage.
