Chris Zielinski is an Apple platforms software engineer and founder with 11 years of experience building and marketing high‑visibility mobile and desktop apps. A UC Berkeley computer science graduate, he founded Big Z Labs where he shipped six apps across iOS, Android, and macOS that reached Top Ten charts worldwide and led targeted launch marketing. At Apple since 2022, he brings deep Swift expertise and a knack for systems-level tooling—evidenced by an autograder and companion macOS app he built as head instructor for UC Berkeley’s iOS course, which cut failure rates by a third. He pairs hands-on engineering with product-minded growth strategies and a playful curiosity (still looking for Waldo) that fuels polished, user‑focused experiences.
