Mat Schmid is an iOS developer with nine years of experience building high-impact mobile products for companies like Stripe, Square, and Shopify. He has led projects that improved performance and conversion—such as a 40% load-time reduction on an order details screen used by over a million daily users and a 30% uplift by converting a web-based flow to a native experience. At Square he co-led efforts to add robust offline order support and consolidated checkout modules across multiple POS apps, demonstrating a knack for scalable, modular architecture. Based in Ottawa, he’s an active open-source advocate and community mentor who runs workshops and gives talks to inspire the next generation of mobile engineers. Less obvious: he combines hands-on feature delivery with platform-level thinking, often driving cross-app consistency and resilience in low-connectivity environments.
