Summary
Hector De Diego is a seasoned mobile engineering leader with 14 years of hands-on experience building native iOS apps and leading cross-platform initiatives, now serving as Global Head of Mobile and DevOps at Distillery in Mexico City. He blends deep Swift/iOS expertise with practical experience in Flutter, Elixir, and Python, and has led migrations from Objective-C to Swift, multi-platform digital signage systems, and AI-enabled nearshore delivery practices that accelerate time-to-market. Hector is as comfortable mentoring teams, refining interview and PD processes, and shaping department skill matrices as he is shipping device-specific solutions for iOS, tvOS and macOS used by enterprise clients. Passionate about spatial computing and AR/VR, he stays hands-on with emerging platforms (Vision Pro, PWAs on Safari) and keeps a developer’s curiosity through side projects in game dev, ML-driven camera apps, and Elixir backends. Colleagues describe him as a practical technologist who pairs technical depth with people-first leadership and a knack for turning legacy, multi-stack codebases into maintainable, production-ready products.
