About

12 years of software development (9 years in iOS).

I worked on numerous iOS projects, some successful (thousands and millions of users), some not so much.

• Love good architecture and clear naming of things
• I prefer to not create complexity when it's not needed (but do it when it is)
• Like new technologies but prefer to wait when they become stable
• Can propose new features/solutions for business, estimate and write docs for them, implement, test and deploy
• Could lead a small team of developers (gathering information, preparing tasks, code review)
• Love automation (could it be CI/CD, or local scripts or code generation) when it saves time/resources
• Have backend development experience (Go/Python/PHP), which helps me to understand overall product architecture and communicate with backend team
