I’m an iOS Developer with 4+ years of experience building and improving mobile applications, with a strong focus on fintech products. I specialize in user-facing features, integrating backend APIs, and shipping reliable functionality in production.

At a contract role for a confidential mobile banking client, I developed and improved user flows for viewing balances, checking transaction history, and initiating payment-related actions. I modernized the iOS client by expanding SwiftUI for newer screens and integrated REST APIs using async/await to simplify asynchronous logic.

Previously at TuranBank, I developed the bank’s main iOS application for payments, cards, and transfers. I boosted the App Store rating by a full point (3.7 to 4.5) through Apple Wallet card support and helped drive a 50% increase in in-app payments by enabling utility bill payments via NFC and integrating third-party bank cards.

I also led a complete refactoring of the networking layer from a legacy callback-based approach to a modern solution, increasing development speed and reducing bugs across the team. I enjoy working closely with product, design, backend, and QA teams to refine requirements, fix issues, and deliver updates that support clear business goals.
