What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a leadership role where I can build and scale iOS products with modular architecture, modern concurrency, strong observability (SLOs/SLIs), and CI/CD automation—while partnering across teams to ship experiments, improve performance, and raise developer velocity.

I’m a seasoned mobile technical leader with 10+ years building production iOS apps in startup and enterprise environments, delivering 0-to-1 work and large-scale, regulated systems. I architect modular systems with modern concurrency (async/await, actors), define CI/CD and rollout automation, and establish observability with SLOs/SLIs, telemetry, runbooks, and fault-tolerance strategies.

In my recent roles, I decomposed a 7,000-file iOS monolith into reusable modules, improving build parallelism by 62%, and led cross-platform reuse that reduced duplicate code by 48%. I modernized release automation to cut deploy time from 4 hours to 22 minutes, reduced crash rate by 33%, and lowered MTTR by 41% with SLO-driven instrumentation using Telemetry, Sentry, and custom metrics. I also drive experimentation (A/B tests) and performance optimization, mentoring teams—like leading a squad of 6 engineers to reach 80% unit test coverage across new modules within 4 months.
