Ivan Alvarado is a Senior Software Engineer with 11 years of experience, currently enabling Android developer productivity and build performance at Tinder from Los Angeles. He blends hands-on feature work with deep platform and tooling expertise—leading modularization, CI migrations, and custom Gradle and IntelliJ tooling that measurably reduced build times and app size. Ivan has a track record of turning technical debt into engineering leverage, creating dashboards and automation that expose regressions and guide remediation across teams. He’s equally comfortable shipping user-facing features (video chat, auth migrations, dynamic module experiments) and building developer-facing solutions like module generators and UI testing frameworks that boost team velocity. A background in scientific computing and early web work hints at a pragmatic, data-driven approach to problem solving and a taste for tooling that makes other engineers’ lives easier.
