Summary
David Melgar is a Senior iOS Developer and entrepreneurial engineer with 11 years of experience designing and shipping mobile and macOS applications across healthcare, enterprise, and consumer domains. He has led mobile teams at startups and large vendors—driving architecture, CI/CD, and product decisions for medical devices and hospital communication platforms that serve clinicians and patients. Technically fluent in Swift, Objective-C, SwiftUI, HealthKit and Core Bluetooth, he pairs low-level embedded/IoT experience (MQTT, Arduino, Raspberry Pi) with cloud-integrated REST/JSON services. A founder and former CPO, he brings product-minded leadership and Lean Startup discipline to cross-functional teams, with a consistent focus on improving patient outcomes through practical UX and reliable data collection. Based in the San Francisco Bay Area, he’s equally comfortable shipping polished client apps and building the device integrations behind them—his career blends systems thinking from an early IBM web-services background with hands-on mobile craftsmanship.
