Summary
Philipp Zagar is a software engineer with five years of experience blending product-grade iOS and web development with applied research in health technology. He has shipped software at Apple’s Health & Research teams and contributes to translational projects as a visiting researcher at Stanford Biodesign, linking clinical needs to engineering solutions. Trained at Technical University of Munich and seasoned by teaching and project leadership roles, he moves fluidly between prototyping, production code, and interdisciplinary research. He also runs a freelance shop out of Munich, which keeps him close to end-user product work while he splits time between Silicon Valley research and scalable engineering at Apple. Notably, his background combines formal CS training with hands-on medical device research, enabling him to bridge regulatory-aware development and fast iteration.
