👋 I'm Scott, a software engineer specialized in iOS development since 2011, currently over at Speak on the Platform team. Before that I was at Lyft for almost 11 years, building the mobile apps, teams, and community.
I live in San Francisco and am always happy to chat—feel free to reach out! For an overview of my work, check out my resume in PDF or HTML.
Speak (current)
I recently took on a software engineering role at language-learning unicorn Speak to build its mobile platform.
Lyft (2014 – 2025)
As one of Lyft's first iOS hires, I started out as a product engineer building out some of the fundamental features and technologies that today define the rideshare industry. Over time I switched gears to iOS infrastructure (specifically architecture) and transitioned into a tech lead role for Lyft's 150-engineer Mobile team while focusing on the quality and scalability of the iOS and Android codebases.
