(ODH = Otsuka Digital Health, the digital arm of a huge pharma company)Digital Health, Services, and Solutions. We save lives. We have an FDA approved digital chip that is embedded in certain medicines to help track proper usage and various metrics. The chip is made from basic elemental compounds, turns on by your stomach acids, transmits an ID to a wearable patch, which stores the transmissions, and sends them to the mobile device via bluetooth, which allows a multitude of options, as well as pushing the data to the cloud so health care providers and doctors can monitor the patient and cause alerts and/or notifications to be sent to a variety of people, including back to the patient. We help ensure the patient takes their very serious medication on time and at proper dosage.My role as Principal Software Engineer has been to architect a brand new iOS application, while meeting a very aggressive schedule. As Tech Lead, I manage 8 other senior level iOS engineers, both local and abroad. I also maintain the direction, quality, standards, and metrics of the application, from basic repo layout, module design, decoupling of hardware and UI, down to the coding standards. I love it !!

iOS Development beginning from iOS 2.0 / XCode 3.1. Develop many prototype / test apps to learn various areas of iOS app development. This was an excellent way to build solid foundations, allowing self-paced focus to fully understand the many areas comprising an iOS application.Note: Individual entries below

Reviewed a local home schooling website for usability, best practices, latest trends and consistencies, etc. The site is used by 5000 remote students, and the accompanying parents, teachers, and staff. This was continuation work from architectural suggestions few years back to update an old legacy website to something more modern and maintainable. The site integrates into Staples, Amazon, etc., many vendors and content providers and such.

Use my Proteus experience to help stabilize and upgrade the old Proteus code to latest Xcode and xcframeworks, produce official xcframework set of release objects, work with DevOps to get things automated and updated, begin mentoring and helping on the continuation of MyCite Proteus code.

Create a native iOS app as a compliment to an internal website scheduler. The scheduler is responsible for 50+ people daily scheduling in a construction environment with millions in revenue each year.

Helped to complete critical tickets and fill the void from my departure. Some tasks included creating a new universal logger to use across multiple apps/frameworks, and demonstrating a POC solution of creating a new app from a saved archive by resigning and updating bundle ids and such - no rebuilding, a promotion step from a unique beta app into another unique published release app.

Much like before, I was brought in to fill the gap of a leaving iOS developer while a replacement was found. During this time, Pinn's technology direction had changed from providing a full product solution to providing an SDK allowing integration into many other products. I helped out mostly in another Demo app, with a few SDK updates. This was a low hour contract.https://www.linkedin.com/company/pinn/

Various contract workwww.cemico.comVisions in Education, Dec '18 - Jan '19 * Advice and suggest best practices on a dated customer facing and internal admin educational web portal, www.viedu.org

I was brought in to fill the gap between Pinn losing their iOS Developer and finding a replacement. During this time I worked closely with the CTO to define and implement a new Demo app, pure Swift, Unit Tests, featuring all the variants of the Pinn biometric authentications.https://www.linkedin.com/company/pinn/

Slow moving side project to create an accurate video timer. The timer physically manipulates the raw frame buffers during recording to add watermark overlay, filter manipulation, and text overlays. The app is functional, in beta.

Fix the challenging bugs in their iOS product. Expanded existing functionality. Added new functionality with complete rewrite of their socket handling code and a new custom messaging mechanism. Helped with the push for the 2.0 release. Mentor current iOS developer.App: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/igo-live/id1146243047?mt=8http://igoliveapp.us/

Onkore is a platform for interacting with live events, such reality shows, sports, etc. In a part time role, and as the main iOS developer, I have responsibility for all areas of the app. The app communicates through REST services to a Node / Mongo backend, and also receives / sends live socket communications. The iPad app was written in Objective C, while the iPhone app was a full rewrite, initially in Swift 2.x, and now in Swift 3.x.https://vimeo.com/135858491

In a limited part time role, created an iOS app which tracks the current crimes around certain addresses and/or GPS locations. Heavy use of MKMapView and various options such as custom annotations, views, geofencing, etc. Also wrote the Node.js, Express.js, Mongoose.js pieces which interact with the Mongodb. The app should was put on hold in 2016 while access to internal crime data is sought out with Santa Clara Sheriff's Department.

iOS 8 upgrade of app I originally wrote and released under iOS 5 and iOS 6. This entailed much complexity traversing two major iOS releases where many items have been replaced and/or depreciated. http://www.twrrl.comhttps://itunes.apple.com/us/app/twrrl/id655900365?ls=1&mt=8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I9Z5a4iV9n0

Released Mar-2016. I designed and implemented 95% of this app, from the logic, the frameworks, the live quotes, account tracking, options, etc. The last 5% (in-app purchase feature and final touches) was added by another. This is a companion app to a 401k Trading book found on Amazon.https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/rebalance-your-401k/id1083731354?mt=8http://www.amazon.com/401-Day-Trading-Cashing-Minutes/dp/1118085418/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1454108298&sr=1-1&keywords=401k+day+trading

I worked alongside 2 other developers, taking early POC work and turning it into an actual product. I had two main areas of responsibilities. First, I was involved with handling all the contact management, social sharing, camera integration, photo caching, custom album, collection viewing, deleting, and sharing. Secondly, I was involved with the map functionality, incorporating Skobbler maps, with a custom overlay interface, turn-by-turn directions, communicating the map data not only visually, but also via audio and BLE to the helmet.Favorite quote: “You seem to be really really good at digging into 3rd party frameworks and making shit work….”, April 28, 2015 via MB.http://www.skully.com/http://productops.com/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CFF99F3BHsI

After several successful previous contracts with Product Ops, I was called upon to code, staff, and manage the biggest end client to date, the non-profit United Nations, via AT&T funding. This involved both an Android and iOS front end, a database and REST server back end, as well as a web interface for the database management. I was responsible for the iOS product, and managed my team spanning from India, Boston, and California. We successfully delivered our milestones until AT&T put things on hold as they were working out the intricacies of dealing with a world-wide non-profit organization.http://www.wfp.org/http://productops.com/https://www.linkedin.com/company/united-nations/

After two successful concept apps shown at CA World 2013, I was brought back to do another for CA World 2014, debuting in November in Las Vegas. This app was among the minimal set of requirements I’ve seen. I hunted down the data, created the app how I thought best it should be, and finished it a few weeks earlier than planned, which allowed me to enhance it with some nice customizations. The project easily came in on time and with added functionality and time for formal documentation. This app was a sales and marketing tool to be distributed to all the customer facing staff to help sell other services, which I had integrated and was demonstrable via a demo environment. I set it up so that new services could be easily added. The app pulled the data that the existing web site used, so was also a companion app for the web site.http://www.ca.com/us/https://www.linkedin.com/company/ca-technologies/

Brought back to build upon my previous client framework and to do all the work necessary to add and push out a new client app, Hart Davis Hart. I was then moved to work on and push out RoGallery app. After which I worked on another app re-writing he complexities of the previous contractor and adding a framework for dynamic REST JSON variable assignment and notification.

As the lead iOS developer, I am responsible for all aspects of our iOS mobile product. Upon hire, I was asked to evaluate the current 2-3 year troubled iOS project. After review, and questioning from the CTO downward, I kept 1% of the existing code (one keychain class). After I re-architected and rewrote the app in iOS 6 / Objective C, I had it approved and in the app store within 4 months. The code reduced in complexity and size, going from ~2m loc to ~40k loc. Updates and enhancements has taken the app from iOS6 through iOS 7, iOS 8, and now iOS 9. The app underwent another full rewrite during iOS 8, when we converted to C# / Xamarin for all mobile platforms, Android, Windows, and iOS. I performed this rewrite for iOS, which interacts with a vehicle communication layer on the hardware side (using WiFi or BLE), and interacts with the hybrid web side via various forms of Java Scripting bridging. I also did the 64-bit upgrade for iOS 8 and wrote authorization and validation REST communication layer, and added camera and barcode support for the scanning of VINs.Some of the more complex areas are the handling of the proper foreground / background queues and threads, the differences between UIWebView and WKWebView, and the changing support for JS bridging between iOS 6-9. I added a live debugging panel which provides many useful items when trying to determine the root cause of a system with many moving parts. Some such items in this area are direct access to existing user preferences, keychain handling, and logging overrides, storage, compression, and emailing.To date, I've had 10 app store submissions with 0 rejections. The current composition of the app is C#, HTML 5, Angular, Bootstrap, Typescript, with socket communications to the hardware via WiFi or BLE.ALLDATA is a subsidiary of AutoZone, a multi-billion dollar company.App: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/alldata-mobile/id697105390?mt=8.http://www.alldata.com/alldata-mobile3
