Krisjanis Gaidis is an iOS-focused software engineer and founder with 11 years of experience building consumer and enterprise apps from startup to scale. He founded Refocus, an app that blocks distracting apps and websites on iPhone, and has shipped iOS work at Stripe (Financial Connections), Meta (Facebook Stories viewer), Adobe (Behance), and well-funded startups. Comfortable owning products end-to-end, he blends hands-on mobile engineering with product instincts—having taken multiple apps from concept to App Store launch. Based in Santa Monica, he pairs large-company experience on surfaces with hundreds of millions of daily users with the agility of a solo founder, and maintains a public presence through his app and personal site. An understated strength is turning feature-level user friction into pragmatic blocking/flow solutions that improve focus.
