About Me


Senior iOS Engineer and Mobile Architect with 20+ years in software, 15+ building mobile products in regulated, high-stakes domains: aviation (Lufthansa Group), digital banking (Apple Pay/MBWay), and IoT (Bosch, Electrolux).

Currently engineering the Lufthansa Group multi-tenant iOS platform — one codebase, five airline apps, 5M+ monthly active users, 99.9%+ crash-free. Architected a cross-platform video player SDK adopted by 8 apps with 120k+ active users, eliminating duplicated development across teams.

Shipped AI to production (LLM-backed contextual help) and practice disciplined AI-augmented delivery: agent-assisted development gated by SonarQube quality/security gates and CI/CD, plus spec-driven development with Kotlin Multiplatform.

Former engineering manager (20-person org, 8 projects; MBA in Project Management) who chose the IC track — I build the platforms other engineers ship on.
