What I'm looking for

I seek a hands-on senior/mobile engineering role where I can lead architecture, mentor teams, drive cross-platform solutions, and deliver high-quality user experiences within collaborative, product-focused teams.

I am a Senior Software Engineer with 13+ years of experience building scalable, high-performance web and mobile applications. I specialize in mobile frameworks including Swift/SwiftUI, Kotlin, and Kotlin Multiplatform, and I architect extensible systems that improve user experience and business growth.

I have led end-to-end app development, championed SwiftUI and KMP adoption, and implemented modular mobile architectures that reduced code duplication and improved time-to-market. At Zendesk I improved test coverage, streamlined CI/CD, and integrated monitoring to reduce MTTR while maintaining 99.9% uptime.

My background includes significant frontend and full-stack work—building React and React Native applications, introducing TypeScript and Redux best practices, and optimizing APIs and performance for enterprise-scale usage. I have a track record of mentoring engineers, enabling promotions, and fostering cross-functional collaboration.

I seek to bring technical leadership, innovation, and mobile expertise to mission-driven teams, driving measurable improvements in efficiency, reliability, and user engagement through disciplined engineering practices.
