ABOUT ME
Senior iOS Developer
Senior iOS Developer
I'm a senior iOS Developer currently working as a team lead / developer on Lovecrafts' universal iOS apps. I've been building iOS apps since 2010, and am comfortable working with Swift and Objective-C. I've also worked with React Native and Android development. I enjoy working on early stage products, helping to find the best mobile experience. I'm also experienced building and leading mobile development teams, including finding the best interaction with API, product, design etc

I've been building iOS apps since 2010, when Objective-C was the main language in use. I can help with anything from maintianing an existing Objective-C based app, through to converting an app over to Swift

All apps I work on have a strong focus on testing, ensuring they are build to high standards, and can be maintained going forward.
I use a combination of unit, UI and integration tests to maximise quality. Tests are automated as much as possible, both from the running side through to triggers to run when code is updated (e.g. running tests on CI when code is pushed to git)

I work at the product design level as well as design to improve the apps I work on. This includes optimising UX to improve user behaviours, e.g. conversion / sign up rates and general UX flow to build the best possible app experience.
12 years experience
All work I do is backed in source control, and I keep the git history as readable as possible in case something needs to be checked.

I am currently leading the mobile development efforts at Lovecrafts. This role started with a com- pletely clean slate, and I helped build the team, guide them through product planning, design, implementation and analytics analysis. This app was an opportunity to build an app using 100% Swift which has been a great learning experience. This was also an opportunity to work full time remote: setting up processes, tools and training on best practices for remote first teams (including experience working with large time zone offsets)

Head of Mobile Development, Swift, PDFKit, Unit Testing · LoveKnitting is an e-commerce / community site for knitters. The iOS app was designed as a tool for knitters to use while working on patterns, and has since expanded into project management and discovery
I am the lead iOS developer on this project, so my work was largely technical (choosing architectures for the app, reviewing code, setting best practices for new tech like Swift) but I was involved in product design, user research, as well as team leadership (setting processes suitable to remote work, running team meetings and 1-1 catchups with direct reports)
