Senior🎓
Top SchoolChris Shanley is a Principal Engineer with over 15 years of professional experience building mobile and server-side products, currently shaping engineering at CNN after leadership roles at JPMorgan Chase and ClassPass. A largely self-taught programmer with formal training in music synthesis from Berklee, he blends creative problem-solving with disciplined engineering—often favoring rich, SDK-driven iOS experiences. He’s shipped high-feature mobile apps across media, finance, and consumer brands, and has led teams as a tech lead and VP of engineering. Chris values life-work balance and brings a musician’s attention to craft to mentoring, architecture, and cross-platform research. He’s comfortable spanning iOS, front-end, and server-side concerns, and seeks product-rich iOS projects that exercise the full SDK. Based in Belmar, NJ, he pairs pragmatic delivery with ongoing curiosity in non-iOS front ends and backend systems.
