Position: Team Lead / Senior iOS engineer

English level: fluent
Years of experience: 11

- Achieved the lowest team attrition rate across the whole company of 12%.
- Actively coached two engineers into a Senior Grade promotion.
- Introduced and standardized RFC and technical design documentation so we could better share knowledge and have fewer bottlenecks.
- Led the migration of in-house CI to the cloud (Bitrise) so we could spend less time fixing our own infrastructure (±8 man/hours per week less).
- Conducted 100+ culture fit interviews and 50+ technical interviews for mobile engineering positions.
- Integrated a code static analysis tool and facilitated a discussion on how to set pipeline rules to address code quality concerns and remove the human factor from code reviews
- Increased code coverage from 6% to 40%, so we could rely more on automated testing.
- Converted a legacy codebase from 30% to 80% pure Swift which helped to onboard new joiners faster and reduce time to market.
- Actively collaborated with all company departments including team dependencies, customer support, and operations. I made things happen sooner instead of following a company hierarchy. 
- Fully automated the public beta upload to TestFlight so we eliminated manual work by 2 hours every fortnight.
- Introduced, integrated, and standardized remote monitoring and alerting service (Sentry) to track 3rd party services reliability and monitor critical app flows which led to a reduction in incidents and CS tickets.
- Improved the unit testing practices inside the team (fix a bug->write tests, encouraged a mindset of testing and utilizing TDD).
- Through collaboration with the localization team, I designed and implemented an automation tool that allowed to screen-capture of localization pages on different devices which allowed the team to be 6 times more efficient: now they had a single interface to check the supported languages across multiple platforms
As a seasoned iOS developer and team lead, I bring over 20 years of experience in software development (8 years in iOS) in crafting high-performance mobile applications. With a strong background in Swift and Objective-C, I have successfully delivered user-centric solutions, built on a foundation of clean code, solid architectural principles, and a deep understanding of the iOS platform. I seek pragmatic solutions keeping the codebase easy to support and extend without unnecessary over-engineering.

I am committed to staying up-to-date with the latest Apple trends, constantly seeking opportunities to optimize team processes and enhance the user experience.

As a team lead, I foster a culture of open communication, mentorship, and continuous learning, empowering my team members to grow both technically and professionally. 

I seek an opportunity to work on relevant and impactful projects together with smart people that I can also learn from.

I currently live in The Netherlands and looking for either a local position or a full remote position. I do not consider a relocation.
