// ONE CODEBASE, EVERY PLATFORM

Shipped native. Built once.

Scroll to move through real screens I've shipped to production — Android, iOS, and PWA from a single React Native codebase.

Android

APK trimmed from 114MB to 70MB on Bally's Rewards, with 50% faster cold-start.

iOS

App size cut from 55MB to 26MB, shipped through App Store Connect with Fastlane.

The same React Native codebase, rendered straight to the browser.

// ABOUT

Engineering mobile products end-to-end, not just screens.

I'm a Senior Software Engineer at TO THE NEW, specializing in React Native across Android, iOS, and Progressive Web Apps. My work spans the full lifecycle of a mobile product — architecture decisions, native module bridging, performance tuning, authentication and security, and the release pipelines that ship it all reliably.

I led the migration of legacy applications to React Native's New Architecture (TurboModules & CodeGen), built a reusable component library adopted across multiple projects, and have shipped features for global platforms in sports betting/iGaming and OTT meditation.

Beyond writing code, I own production health — monitoring crash-free sessions with Sentry and Crashlytics, automating dependency security audits, and building Fastlane pipelines that take releases from days down to minutes. I work closely with product, design, backend, and QA teams inside Agile sprints.

// TECHNICAL EXPERTISE

Built for production, not demos.

Six areas of depth that define senior React Native engineering — from architecture to what keeps an app alive after release.
