Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolSteven Hepting is an experienced iOS engineer with 13 years building mobile apps and developer tooling for large consumer platforms, currently focused on iOS tooling and mobile build infrastructure at Airbnb. He brings deep Objective-C and Python fluency from roles at Twitter, Yammer, and earlier system-level work, with a strong track record in CI migrations, Buck configuration, and resolving complex build/linking issues. Steven emphasizes test-driven, user-focused development—unit tests, hallway testing, and rapid prototyping—and pairs that discipline with practical tinkering in Django, AWS, ZeroMQ, and embedded projects. Notably, his background spans both application UX (Twitter Kit, Yammer apps) and the lower-level infrastructure that keeps large fleets of apps shippable, and he’s driven by products that reach millions of users.
