Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolChris Combs is a Senior iOS Engineer based in Seattle with over a decade of hands-on mobile experience and 12 years in industry roles spanning startups to global consultancies. He specializes in native iOS development but also brings cross-platform experience with Flutter and deep domain knowledge in Bluetooth device integration, CI/CD, and large-scale refactors. At Monstarlab he grew and led distributed iOS teams, standardized architectures from MVC to MVVM/VIPER, and modularized monolithic frameworks into maintainable packages. He’s driven mobile initiatives at Novo Nordisk—kickstarting native practices and developer tooling—and now contributes iOS expertise to Zillow. Colleagues would describe him as a pragmatic technical leader who balances shipping features with improving developer experience and testability. An interesting, less obvious strength is his repeated focus on developer enablement: training, tooling, and CI improvements that scale teams as much as code.
