iOS technical leader with 10+ years building production Swift/SwiftUI apps and scalable, observable systems.
What I'm looking for
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.
Experience
Work history, roles, and key accomplishments
Architected modular iOS frameworks, decomposing a 7,000-file monolith into 12 reusable modules and improving build parallelism by 62%. Eliminated 90% of prior data races with async/await and actors, reduced crash rate by 33%, and cut deploy time from 4 hours to 22 minutes while lifting engagement by 7% via A/B testing.
Designed high-performance Swift/SwiftUI and Objective-C features, owning API contracts used by 2M+ weekly active users. Modularized SDK components with Swift Package Manager, improving team reuse and lowering release conflicts by 57%, and reduced CI-to-release velocity by 41% through Xcode Cloud and Fastlane.
Built mobile-friendly SDK APIs in Objective-C/Swift and modernized CI workflows in Azure DevOps, cutting CI time by 67%. Implemented telemetry ingestion and sampling into Azure analytics and data warehouses, improving funnel analysis latency by 52%, and enforced SLOs/runbooks that reduced P1 MTTA by 46%.
Delivered secure, mission-critical mobile apps with encrypted local storage and offline-first sync for 99.7% reliable sensor-data transfers to on-prem SQL. Reduced CPU spikes by 48% via low-level tuning and debugging, and improved integration times by 58% using Jenkins-based CI/CD and automated provisioning.
Developed enterprise mobile integrations using ServiceNow APIs to improve field ticket resolution by 17% and sync CMDB asset metadata with mobile clients and PostgreSQL-backed services, increasing data freshness by 61%. Automated deployment/testing with Jenkins pipelines and device farms to reduce manual validation by 69% and cut crash-prone releases by 33% through performance dashboards.
