I'm a Flutter engineer and mobile tech lead based in Cluj-Napoca, Romania, with 13 years of software development experience — 8 of them focused on Flutter and 9 in native iOS and Android. I currently lead mobile engineering on high-traffic trading apps (Alpari and FXTM), owning everything from architecture and feature delivery to release management, backed by deep hands-on expertise across Flutter, Dart, native iOS/Android, Fastlane, and GitLab CI. I also own the CI/CD infrastructure behind my teams, running self-hosted Mac Mini build runners and solving gnarly platform issues — JVM JIT crashes on Apple Silicon, CocoaPods conflicts, SDK integration clashes — that keep pipelines fast and reliable. I like building custom tooling too, from automated analytics pipelines pulling store and crash data into clear dashboards, to whatever infrastructure a growing team actually needs. Whatever the challenge — architecting an app from scratch, fixing a stubborn build, or scaling release infrastructure — I bring the same practical, ownership-driven approach to shipping mobile products that work.…I'm a Flutter engineer and mobile tech lead based in Cluj-Napoca, Romania, with 13 years of software development experience — 8 of them focused on Flutter and 9 in native iOS and Android.
