iOS development for aviation and UAS

Project-based Swift and SwiftUI development for companies building safety-critical aviation software. 15+ years of shipping code, including apps used by pilots worldwide.

What I do

Aviation iOS Apps

EFB (Electronic Flight Bag) development, flight planning interfaces, real-time data visualization, and pilot-facing tools built to aviation-grade reliability standards.

UAS / Drone Software

Ground control station interfaces, telemetry dashboards, fleet management apps, and connected drone platform development using MAVLink and proprietary protocols.

Swift & SwiftUI Modernization

Migrating legacy Objective-C codebases to Swift, adopting SwiftUI and modern concurrency patterns, and bringing apps up to current Apple platform standards.

Safety-Critical Consulting

Code review, architecture assessment, and testing strategy for iOS apps where reliability isn't optional.

About

I'm an iOS developer with 15+ years of professional software experience, specializing in aviation and unmanned aircraft systems. I've shipped code at ForeFlight (the industry-standard EFB platform) and led iOS development at Skyward (Verizon's drone management subsidiary). I hold a US patent for UAS technology and an FAA Part 107 remote pilot certificate.

I work on a project basis with companies that need experienced, safety-aware iOS engineering for aviation applications. Whether you're building a new product or modernizing an existing codebase, I bring deep domain knowledge and a track record of shipping reliable software in regulated environments.
