I am an Android Software Engineer at iFood, one of the largest food delivery platforms in the world, processing over 120 million orders per month. As part of the Order Delivery team, I work on critical flows that every order passes through, directly impacting the experience of millions of users. My expertise spans app performance, scalability, monitoring, and the delivery of robust solutions for complex distributed systems.

In recent years, I have expanded my focus into Edge AI and on-device machine learning. I’ve been actively researching and building proof of concepts using Android’s ML Kit Prompt APIs and on-device generative models, exploring how Edge AI can move from experimentation to real product features. My work investigates practical trade-offs between cloud and on-device AI, including latency, privacy, cost, and scalability, always with a production-first mindset. I am particularly interested in transforming AI capabilities into tangible user value within large-scale mobile applications.

My journey in monitoring began during an internship, where I gained hands-on experience working on large-scale systems. Over time, I developed a deep understanding of designing effective observability strategies, integrating tools such as Analytics, Crashlytics, and health monitoring into development lifecycles. At iFood, I have been responsible for implementing scalable monitoring solutions to ensure operational reliability and an exceptional user experience.

Academically, I hold a degree in Control and Automation Engineering from UNICAMP and I am currently pursuing a postgraduate degree in Software Engineering, also at UNICAMP. My research paper, "Effective Monitoring of Mobile Applications in Production," received top marks and strengthened my ability to bridge theory and real-world engineering challenges. More recently, my academic and professional interests have converged around applied AI in mobile environments, especially the evolution of Edge AI in Android ecosystems.

Beyond work, I am deeply involved in the Android community. I have attended and spoken at international conferences, including Droidcon Berlin 2024 and AndroidMakers by Droidcon Paris, where I share insights on practical on-device AI and scalable mobile architectures. My talks focus on actionable strategies, real-world experimentation, and how to responsibly bring emerging AI technologies into production-grade apps.

Jalal Abdallah has built three businesses. He runs one of them today, and closing the other two was as deliberate a decision as starting them.

An attorney based in Dearborn, Michigan, Jalal graduated from Fordson High School, earned a history degree at the University of Michigan-Dearborn, and completed his law degree at Cooley Law School in 2018. He passed the bar exam in 2020. In 2021, rather than take a position at an established firm, he founded his own practice, focused exclusively on personal injury law.

He did not stop there. Alongside the firm, Jalal opened, owned, and operated an insurance agency and a title insurance agency handling real estate closings. He describes himself plainly as someone who loves being an entrepreneur, and the appeal is the challenge and independence that come with building something from nothing.

The harder call came later. As his law practice grew and his political career took shape, Jalal recognized that running three businesses meant giving none of them everything they needed. He closed the insurance and title agencies so he could focus completely on his firm and on serving his community through public office. Knowing what to stop is a form of leadership that gets discussed less often than knowing what to start.

That focus has produced results. Jalal won the Democratic primary for Michigan House, District 15, an achievement he places alongside passing the bar exam and launching his practice as the ones that mean the most to him. He is also currently pursuing an MBA, driven by a conviction that leadership, whether in a courtroom, a company, or public office, requires ongoing learning rather than a fixed set of skills.

His approach to clients follows the same logic as his approach to business. Personal injury clients are dealing with real disruption to their lives, and Jalal built his practice so he could work with them directly rather than at a distance.

Jalal has been married to his wife, Leila, for nearly five years. Outside the office, his time belongs to family. He is a lifelong history enthusiast, a follower of sports and sports history, a dedicated film buff, and a regular at concerts and music festivals.

The pattern across all of it is consistent: build carefully, commit fully, and stay accountable to the people relying on you.
