During my second summer on the iOS team, I was given the responsibility of a number of major projects. Namely, I was tasked with utilizing UIStackView to re-engineer one of their core architectures, increasing efficiency and simplicity. This led to a massive collaboration with a number of engineers, designers, and product managers to utilize this architecture in the reimagining of the app's core user experience. By the end of the Summer, my architecture was being used across their app and actively being improved upon on a daily basis.

Throughout the summer, I joined a small team of developers in an Agile environment to improve the company's iOS application, which is vital to its product and its customers. In addition to applying critical bug fixes, I also implemented a variety of new major features in response to customer feedback. I frequently collaborated with people from other teams, including UI/UX, web, and backend. I helped reduce technical debt by rewriting many legacy Objective-C files in Swift and by completely re-engineering their WatchOS application to use more modern API's, significantly improving performance and stability.

Over the course of several weeks, I created and developed several iOS applications for various clients. My position involved collaborating with developers working on the same application on other platforms to coordinate the user interface and ensure a consistent user experience. In order to create the applications, I utilized a web API for downloading, displaying, and updating data from a server. This also involved the implementation of in app purchases to permit users to purchase a specialized in app currency. I was often tasked with identifying and fixing bugs in multiple applications for several clients.
