Summary
Taras Melnyk is a Senior iOS Software Engineer with nine years of hands-on experience building and maintaining native apps since 2013, currently contributing at Iwana from Vinnytsia, Ukraine. He has delivered over 20 iOS projects across startups and large enterprises, including refactoring and stabilizing a high-scale fast food app serving 150M+ users at Capgemini Engineering. Taras blends strong engineering discipline—architecture, unit testing, and crash analysis—with practical leadership, having led and mentored an iOS team and driven major codebase refactors that reduced crash rates. His technical breadth spans Swift, Objective-C, SwiftUI, Combine, RxSwift, MVVM and real-time features like chat, VoIP and on-device speech recognition from early R&D work. Unusual for an app engineer, he has experience with on-device ML voice recognition and low-level C integrations, showing comfort across higher-level UI frameworks and embedded system constraints. He prioritizes user experience and sustainable code quality, favoring automated tooling and pragmatic solutions to complex production bugs.
