I build native, performance-critical software for connected devices and global-scale platforms.
What I'm looking for
I've built high-performance telemetry infrastructure for Microsoft Office and modular software platforms for connected commercial fitness equipment deployed internationally and used daily by thousands of people.
At Moca Devs, I develop native C++, Kotlin, and Python solutions spanning connected devices, engineering tools, and performance-sensitive Linux applications. I bring 15+ years of hands-on experience taking hardware-integrated products from prototypes to production, including Bluetooth communication, real-time data pipelines, scalable architectures, and agentic development workflows using Claude Code, Cursor, and OpenAI Codex.
