What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to innovate and lead in iOS development, with opportunities for career growth and collaboration in a dynamic team environment.

As a seasoned native iOS Developer with over 12 years of experience, I have honed my skills in designing, developing, and deploying high-quality native iOS applications. My proficiency in Swift and Objective-C, combined with my expertise in Apple’s ecosystem, including UIKit, SwiftUI, Core Data, and Core Animation, allows me to create scalable and maintainable codebases. I am passionate about building innovative, user-friendly applications and staying updated with the latest iOS advancements.

Throughout my career, I have successfully integrated third-party APIs, optimized performance, and implemented best practices for UI/UX. My experience in Agile methodologies and version control (Git) has equipped me to work effectively in dynamic team environments. Currently, I am part of the iOS team at the Bank of Singapore, where I contribute to the development of the awarded wealth beyond boundaries digital service iOS application.
