Hi, I’m Daniel Vivek, an iOS engineering leader with 9+ years of experience delivering scalable, high-performance mobile apps across events, e-commerce and fintech domains. I specialize in architecting scalable Swift-based apps using SwiftUI and UIKit, MVVM, and Combine, with a focus on server-driven UI and offline-first architectures. I’m passionate about leveraging Generative AI and LLM-driven workflows to accelerate development cycles and improve collaboration across product and engineering teams. I’ve mentored cross-functional teams, delivered production-grade apps used by thousands of users, and built reliable, offline-capable apps optimized for challenging network conditions. I enjoy translating complex requirements into user-centric features, designing robust SDKs, and driving cross-platform communication to serve apps across iOS, macOS and Android.
