What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation, encourages collaboration, and offers opportunities for professional growth.

I am an accomplished iOS engineer with over 11 years of experience in building and shipping production Swift apps. My expertise lies in architecting modular, micro-service-backed SwiftUI products and integrating AI solutions to enhance user experiences. I have successfully led cross-functional teams, enforced best practices in MVVM and Combine, and mentored junior developers to produce clean, testable code.

Throughout my career, I have developed a variety of applications, including productivity suites and donation management tools, focusing on seamless user experiences and robust architecture. My passion for performance tuning, CI/CD automation, and delivering impactful features has consistently driven business metrics forward. I thrive in collaborative environments and am dedicated to fostering a culture of innovation and excellence.
