Summary
John Pusey is a Principal Software Engineer based in Greenwich, Connecticut, with a deep pedigree in systems and iOS engineering spanning nearly four decades. He has focused on iOS for the last 15 years, leading mobile development for consumer social apps, health recovery platforms, and live video streaming at companies like YouNow, Waldo, and Tricentis. Known for shipping production-grade apps that integrate complex multimedia stacks (FFmpeg, AVFoundation, Core Media/Video) and real-time features, he pairs hands-on engineering with technical leadership across small teams and solo roles. Earlier in his career he co-designed enterprise-grade messaging and transaction systems, giving him rare cross-domain expertise from high-performance back-end middleware to polished mobile UX.
