Senior🎓
Top SchoolPierre Bernard is a software architect and founder with 13+ years of experience building polished macOS and iOS applications and bespoke engineering services from Zurich. He founded Houdah Software in 2005 and has led product design and development for practical tools like HoudahGeo, HoudahSpot, Tembo and Type2Phone, combining strong UI sensibilities with solid architecture. His background spans WebObjects and Java-based backend work for clients including banks and live-sports platforms, and he has experience integrating REST services and Mule flows for data ingestion. Comfortable working both as an indie founder and in remote teams, he focuses on elegant, pragmatic implementations that solve real user problems. Unusually for an architect, he retains deep hands-on expertise across Cocoa/Cocoa Touch and Apple platform interfaces while running product strategy and marketing.
