  Responsible for developing new apps and adding features to existing products for the events industry from conception to publication like: OnArrival: The app is currently in the App Store. Initially it was written in Obj-C but we have been upgrading parts of the app in Swift over the past year. My role as senior iOS developer was to develop new features, code review and participate in technical meetings. Additionally the app connects to external hardware like scan readers and printers, and other third party frameworks that I had to integrate and support. I also integrated basic unit testing. Lead Capture: The app is currently available in the App Store and was written in Swift. My role as senior iOS developer was to add new features and functionalities. iAttendance: Wrote this check-in iOS app in Obj-C that includes business logic for attendance validation and scans RFID and barcode badges. Made it universal and enhanced the app to support larger events and a new company back-end. Not available in the store at this time. iConnect: My role spanned the entire process from fixing bugs and adding new features to releasing the app in the store. iConnect was used by event attendees to schedule sessions, connect with colleagues, and find relevant information. Not available in the store at this time. iOS Frameworks: Created iOS Libraries/Frameworks that can be reused for all AllianceTech products. The frameworks abstract the logic that is used for several products, like connectivity to the back-end via REST calls, data models and so on. At Cvent I also had the opportunity to work on learn about tools like enterprise distribution, Jira, Confluence, Git, Jenkins and the agile methodology. In my last year at Cvent I was entrusted with the creation of an offshore development team to provide talented software developers. Show less
