PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE:

Sr. iOS Developer

Confidential, New York, NYC

Responsibilities:

• Designed and created most of the authentication logic using proprietary APIs.
• Led the architecture of the project, using MVVM in order to separate project responsibilities into different layers, leading into a better maintenance for the application.
• Implemented DTO, Network Layers, View Models and XIBs to provide the MVVM functionality that the team adapted for this project.
• Trained others to start using RxSwift and RxCocoa, using Drivers and Observables to communicate all over the app without leaking memory or re-build same logic.
• Worked directly on the presentation of the cash flow of over 200 user bank accounts and managed the presentation using multiple flows
• Implemented custom and reusable UX components for the presentation of accounts using UITableViewCells, UIButtons, radio buttons, dropdowns, textfields with data validation, Xibs, protocols, delegates, RxSwift and RxCocoa
• Implemented reusable UX components from scratch
• Created a reusable component to manage the global errors, empty states or network issues for the entire app, in a separate class
• Implemented an automatic timeout after 5 minutes to improve user security if the user left the app idle.
• Implemented various flows in the app from scratch using the MVVM architecture and the RxSwift framework
• Integrated RxSwift into the network layer to bring the app more in line with the reactive programming approach.
• Involved in the creation of a reusable skeleton screen component, similar to Facebook, to improve the user’s experience while the app gathers all the information required to show the screen.
• Used User Defaults to save profile preferences persistently so that the customer can customize their experience to their liking.
• Implemented Lottie animation to avoid memory leaking or large loading time for UX
• Implemented lazy loading for some flows to reduce the amount of data that is required to show the information the user is interested in.
• Used Xcode tools to follow leaks and recognize duplicated calls to the network avoiding repeated calls and removing memory leak problems.
• Implemented TDD, using XCTest for the DTOs, VM, UI and others to create unit and UI test cases, improving app quality and reducing time of features rework.

Sr. iOS Developer

Confidential, Minneapolis, MN

Responsibilities:

• Trained and mentored junior iOS developers in programming methodologies and coding best practices such as MVVM principles, memory management, code redundancy, and dependency injection, resulting in a comprehensive and easily executed code base of the project
• Worked directly in the “Barcode Scanner” feature of the app that lets users scan barcode items to get price and item’s reviews, using AVFoundation and AVCaptureSession to capture video metadata, improving the performance of the application scanning process
• Implemented Core Animation to animate in app menu transitions, coupons cards and product images, to create a more informative user experience
• Created Codable model objects to parse json files using JSONSerialization and URLSession, improving the network layer of the application by requesting customer’s savings and coupons information asynchronously
• Synchronized customer Cartwheel savings and coupons into a single view, using a custom UICollectionView and a custom Barcode XIB to redeem customer savings with one barcode scan, having a positive effect in the user experience of the app
• Created a background networking layer using GCD to request information from Confidential ’s API
• Created the Payment manager to manage passes in the user’s Wallet app, using Pass Kit to cosume json packages to uniquely identify passes’ serial numbers and display them to the user following apple recommendation using PKBarcodeFormatQR arrays
• Implemented Core Location and Mapkit to display Confidential store based on proximity and created a custom location manager to drew annotations into a map.
• Responsible of the UI of the Cartwheel feature, using Autolayout and Size Classes in order to support different screen’s sizes, allowing the application to detect internal and external changes to update the frame of each view in the view hierarchy
• Used Core Data for grouping and filtering data in memory, allowing an off-line experience and organizing persisted data in memory and in the user interface
• Implemented TDD, using XCTest to create unit and UI test cases, improving app quality and reducing time of features rework
