Eugene N.

I'm a Lead iOS Engineer and AI-Assisted Full-Stack Developer with 13 years building mobile products across a range of industries and company sizes, from lean studios to established international teams. My focus is native iOS, but I work end-to-end: architecting the system, writing clean and maintainable code, and increasingly, using AI as part of both how I build and what I build. On the "how," I use modern AI coding tools to move faster without sacrificing code quality or test coverage. On the "what," I integrate AI directly into products — LLM-powered features, on-device ML, and other AI-driven functionality clients are now expecting as standard, not a bonus. Alongside iOS, I'm capable across the rest of the stack — React and Node.js — so I can take a project from mobile app through to backend and web frontend myself, and bring in a small trusted partner network if a project needs more hands than I can provide alone. What I bring: 13 years of iOS development across international teams and projects Practical experience integrating AI features: LLM APIs, on-device ML, AI-assisted dev tooling Full-stack range: React, Node.js, Firebase (Cloud Functions) Computer Science Master's degree Tech Lead and project management experience — I can own scope, not just tickets Software architecture and REST API design iOS unit/UI testing and CI/CD (Jenkins, Fastlane, Xcode Cloud) I also work with a long-term, NDA-bound QA assistant at a reduced rate — they help shape test cases, verify features across iOS versions and devices, run regression testing, and handle QA automation. This keeps quality high while lowering your total cost and letting me stay focused on the hardest technical problems. Happy to work out how this fits your process — whether that's onboarding my assistant directly, keeping me as your sole contact, or excluding them from your project entirely. Just tell me your preference up front. For projects that outgrow what I can build solo, I coordinate a small network of vetted specialists in web, backend, and Android — so you get one accountable owner without hitting a ceiling on scope.
