Summary
David Ribero is a bilingual iOS developer with 13+ years building native mobile experiences across startups and large platforms, currently shaping Uber's iOS apps using RIBs, Needle, and RxSwift. He brings a rare blend of hands-on engineering and product instincts from co-founding and scaling Ommm (winning government startup funding) to leading mobile efforts at Cornershop, Disney, and Tappsi. David excels at performance and architecture improvements—ranging from dependency-injection patterns and service-driven UIs to migration work that dramatically reduced build times. He pairs strong app UX craftsmanship (translating Figma into polished native interfaces) with operational rigor in monitoring, incident mitigation, and analytics. Based in Bogotá, he is particularly effective at shipping end-to-end features that improve operational efficiency, such as batched-order flows that doubled shopper throughput.
