What I do

Three ways we can work together.

Build

Ship the mobile app.

Native iOS or React Native, with AI features done right. Greenfield builds, rebuilds, or feature work — production-grade code, shipped fast.

Lead

Run your mobile team part-time.

Fractional engineering leadership. Set the bar, hire, unblock, and ship while your team grows around me.

Audit & advise

Two-week deep dive.

Mobile and AI roadmap review with concrete recommendations on architecture, hiring, and what to ship next.

About

I've spent the last sixteen years shipping mobile.

Most recently at Lark Health on AI-driven health coaching, and earlier at BitMEX on mobile trading — including a patented interaction pattern. Six of those years were spent leading teams: hiring, setting the bar, and shipping alongside.

I'm hiring out for hands-on engineering work where AI is core to the product, with leadership where it's needed. If that's the kind of help you're looking for, let's talk.
