Highlights

  • RecentSenior iOS engineer
  • ResultCreated new CI/CD release automation pipeline for iOS

I'm a senior software engineer specialising in iOS and macOS, building and shipping Apple-platform apps in Swift, SwiftUI and UIKit. I'm based in Melbourne, after ten years in Berlin. I've been doing this for 10+ years, at companies including DuckDuckGo, SoundCloud, Mimi Hearing Technologies and FanDuel (via Kotikan). Two things I'm proud of: 1. At DuckDuckGo, I led the iOS build of the VPN and shipped it as part of the company's first subscription bundle, working fully remote on an international team. 2. I built Homebrew.app, the official native macOS app for Homebrew (SwiftUI, Swift 6 concurrency, signed and notarised releases via GitHub Actions). It's open source and I now maintain it. Next, I want a full-time, fully remote role (as an employee, not a contractor) at senior or staff level on a native iOS/macOS or mobile platform team. I do my best work at product-led, privacy-respecting companies with high engineering standards and an async-friendly culture, ideally one that already hires in Australia or works across time zones. Audio, creative tools or developer tooling would be a bonus, as my background in sound design and audio engineering (MSc Sound Design) gives me a real edge there.
