What I'm looking for

I'm seeking a Senior iOS Developer role at an innovative consumer technology company where I can improve user experiences, build personalized mobile products, and apply mobile development and engineering management skills.

I've built iOS features for Space International's TBC fintech banking app, contributing to loan and gamification products used by millions. I develop scalable mobile experiences with Swift, UIKit, SwiftUI, MVVM, Clean Architecture, Combine, and RxSwift.

Alongside fintech work, I founded Montes, an IT services business where I lead a team of four engineers delivering client products end-to-end. I modernized Ferrari Driving School's 20+ year legacy PHP platform for 100k+ students, rebuilding it into a flexible microservices architecture.

I’ve delivered CRM dashboards, student portals, scheduling workflows, Stripe checkout, and Twilio and SendGrid messaging integrations. I also built an OpenAI API scheduling chatbot and ELDT training infrastructure.

Currently, I lead the iOS Business Banking Loan Team at TBC Uzbekistan, providing technical and delivery leadership for a platform used by millions of users.
