Work on the mobile SDKs that are integrated into our customers' apps, in order to create rich, native digital customer service experiences.

During my time here, the native SDK has been released and integrated by multiple companies.

I interviewed multiple mobile candidates and have been directly responsible in the hiring of several developers.

January 2020 - July 2020

Worked on the native Pipedrive iOS application.

I improved our weekly deployments through Fastlane and Testflight. I was responsible for introducing Quick and Nimble to the codebase. Also, I was part of a project to implement functionality for sending a phone call request from the web application to the mobile devices using push notifications.
