About

Hi, I’m Alexander Schaffer, a Full-Stack Engineer with a track record of architecting, shipping, and operating production web and mobile systems end-to-end. I excel at modernizing legacy platforms, stabilizing outsourced codebases, and owning the full delivery lifecycle—from database schema to App Store release. I prioritize reliability, usability, and maintainability in high-availability environments.

As a founder and technical leader, I’ve built and launched iOS apps and e-commerce platforms, taking ideas from concept to customer. I lead product and engineering with a customer-first mindset, delivering features with a relentless focus on quality and efficiency while guiding teams and collaborations.

RoundCount is a privacy-first iOS app I designed and built to help shooters log range sessions, track firearm usage, monitor ammo consumption, and review performance over time.

I created the product from the ground up as a solo founder and engineer, taking it from concept to App Store release. The app uses a local-first architecture to keep user data on-device, prioritizing trust, speed, and usability for shooters who want meaningful training insights without unnecessary friction.

Key areas of work included:

Product architecture and feature planning
SwiftUI iOS development
Local data modeling with SwiftData
Session logging and analytics workflows
Pro subscription/paywall implementation
TestFlight beta distribution and release preparation
UI/UX design focused on fast, repeatable range use

RoundCount was built as a real production product, not just a demo project. The goal was to solve a specific problem for firearm owners and competitive shooters: making it easy to capture training history, ammo usage, and reliability trends in a clean, mobile-first experience.
