Senior iOS Developer / Product Manager

I'm a senior iOS developer with 8+ years of experience shipping consumer apps — most recently Shapeyard, one of the most popular 3D modeling apps for iPhone and iPad with 1.3M+ users. I've led mobile teams, run projects end to end, and co-founded my own startup, REVENT. I love learning new technologies.

Senior iOS Developer · April, 2019 — December, 2024

At Magic Unicorn, a New York–based product studio, I spent over five years building Shapeyard — one of the most popular 3D modeling apps for iPhone and iPad with 1.3M+ users. I developed its UIKit and SwiftUI interfaces, core business logic, StoreKit subscriptions, server integration, and caching, working with Swift Concurrency and Combine.

At the Junto app development studio I shipped iOS apps end to end and automated the processes around them, then grew into managing the studio's mobile teams of 5–10 people — writing technical specifications, planning work in Jira, communicating with clients, and delivering quality apps on tight deadlines.

My first startup, co-founded with a classmate — a fashion resale marketplace. I designed the interface, built the iOS app, coordinated the backend and web development, and ran the business strategy. The app reached 20K+ downloads and nearly 5K registered users with almost no marketing spend.
