Aslam Iliyas
@aslamiliyas
Frontend and mobile engineer delivering scalable apps through clear communication and structured problem-solving.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Frontend & Mobile Engineer with 4+ years of experience building production-grade applications for global audiences. I’m known for clear communication and translating complex challenges into simple, elegant solutions.
I approach problems with a structured, critical mindset: I break down ambiguity, identify root causes, and ship reliable software that scales. I bring ownership, attention to detail, and a continuous improvement mindset to every team and codebase.
In my most recent contract role, I architected a full React Native community experience, including feeds, polls, circles, events, and a scroll-aware FAB for creating content. I also built an in-app notification system with Expo and REST APIs, engineered anonymous mode, and delivered an end-to-end user settings module with zero rework.
Previously, I migrated a React Native codebase from CLI to Expo, expanded platform support to Android, and modernized WebView screens into native widgets. I’ve also delivered measurable performance gains (30% faster page loads), implemented JWT/OAuth/MFA with role-based access control, and improved quality with Jest/Cypress and unit testing.
