Work Experience
CTO
Hoodie Hoo
- Developed the company's new MVP with a highly scalable architecture based on Redux but achieved through RxSwift.
- Worked on the iOS app and the API simultaneously to achieve a highly accurate, bug-free app.
- Used Linear to track all the issues and feature requests and define a flexible timeline of the projects through cycles.
Head of Development
Abihome
- Hired the team in charge of developing different applications for the company.
- Made daily technical decisions, especially those associated with technologies, frameworks, and architectures.
- Redesigned the entire iOS main application, which resulted in a high increment of product consumption of over 100% with the addition of several features.
Founder
The Surfing App
- Contributed to the creation of a surfing photography marketplace. Surfers can look at the photos based on location, date, photographer, etc. They can also buy any of them without interacting directly with the photographers.
- Collaborated closely with my cofounder to release the first demo in a short period of time, which helped us to get to know the market demands better.
- Coded the entire API with a friendly startup tech stack. The startup was highly scalable, and it was easy to onboard new developers as needed.
- Took charge of a significant number of code reviews and remote meetings to shape the best version of the product that we had in mind.
iOS Developer
We Help You (Toptal Client)
- Developed a social network for students from scratch.
- Built a photo editor with features similar to those of Instagram stories.
- Constructed a feed system similar to Instagram (posts, likes, answers, and so on).
- Developed an admin app with statistics and reviewed reported posts, among other things.
- Tested the apps fully with more than 90% coverage.
iOS Developer
Mozio
- Worked with different teams in a remote-first startup to build an iOS application that compared all the ground transportation options in one place.
- Developed a large map-based application that provided location tracking, the available providers, and more. It interacts with a RESTful API using Alamofire and Realm's local storage.
- Tested the app fully and implemented continuous integration with CircleCI.
- Strove to write bug-free code and fix bugs when found.
iOS Developer
Technisys
- Developed an interpreter from JavaScript to iOS native components; worked on it from planning and betas to implementing and maintaining some banking projects.
- Coded in a simple and popular language (which was JavaScript) and displayed the same information on multiple platforms (iOS, Android, and Windows Phone).
- Worked quickly and under pressure. Nearing the deadlines, I worked directly with the client to speed up the delivery flow of features.
Software Developer
QuadMinds
- Developed their first map-based iOS application that interacted with an API and the local storage.
- Automated their billing process to their clients. Built a new website from scratch.
- Developed an internal bot to take care of clients and prevent possible losses.
- Worked directly with one of their biggest clients to deliver a web app that constantly changed its requirements.
Experience
Open Source
https://github.com/LucianoPolitLeash is a network abstraction layer based on the interceptor pattern. The main purpose is to avoid writing your own network layer in every new project. It also contains a default set of tools that are used in almost all projects.
