At Intermedia Cloud Communications, I modernized CI/CD for Unite and AnyMeeting, migrating pipelines to GitHub Actions and setting up Fastlane and custom macOS environments. I also migrated the core VoIP calling pipeline to Combine and maintained the shared foundation behind 3+ white-label enterprise apps.

As an independent iOS consultant, I built a smooth browsing UI for PassionFlix on iOS and tvOS and modularized its legacy tvOS codebase. At Identomat, I owned an identity-verification SDK, reduced crashes, simplified client integration, and moved distribution to XCFramework.

Earlier, I designed the architecture for Bank of Georgia’s new iOS banking app and built a UI component library for its design system. I’ve also built streaming, video, and photo products, including StampCam, with GPU-accelerated image processing and a Python backend.
