About

Lead iOS Engineer | 14+ years across Fintech, Messaging & Healthcare I help mobile-first companies ship better products faster — through hands-on technical leadership, cleaner architecture, and teams that actually run well. My background is in building scalable iOS applications from the ground up: Swift, SwiftUI, VIPER/MVVM, modular SPM systems, and CI/CD pipelines. I've led engineering teams across the full SDLC, driven technical decisions at the architecture level, and mentored engineers who've grown into confident, sought-after developers — many of whom have reached out to say the experience shaped their careers. Leveraged Cursor for AI-assisted development of features, and used GitHub workflows combined with Cursor to efficiently action and resolve code review comments; adopted Figma MCP to accelerate design-to-code translation across iOS initiatives. After 14 years I'm convinced that delivery problems are rarely just technical — they're usually a mix of architecture, process, and people. Understanding that distinction is what separates a lead from a senior engineer. Outside of work, I'm driven by two simple things — learning something new every day and meaningful interactions with people. I'm naturally drawn to challenges and enjoy staying active — sports and the outdoors are where I recharge. Open to senior/lead iOS roles in product-driven, high-growth companies.
