Adam Putinski is a product-focused engineer with 12 years of experience building polished front-end experiences, native iOS apps, and developer tooling across companies like Salesforce, Firebase, and BibleProject. He combines hands-on implementation with team leadership—moving from Lead iOS Engineer to Engineering Manager and now Product Engineer—while keeping a strong emphasis on developer experience and build systems. His open-source contributions include meaningful work on well-known projects such as Salesforce’s design system and Firebase CLI tooling, and he’s improved design-token tooling (theo) and migrated legacy build processes to modern Webpack setups. Comfortable across the stack, he’s shipped APIs, UI components, and platform integrations, and has a track record of improving error handling, test coverage, and local developer workflows. Based in Columbus, Ohio, he pairs a graphic design BA with deep engineering craftsmanship, which helps him bridge design intent and production-ready code. A less obvious strength: he repeatedly focuses on usability for both end users and fellow engineers, from ARIA improvements to clearer CLI messaging.
