Summary
Thomas Verbeek is a Staff Software Engineer based in Auckland with a decade-plus focus on iOS engineering, computer graphics and secure mobile experiences. He has led and shipped high-impact products from mobile banking and government tax apps to AR consumer hits and end-to-end encrypted backups at Meta. A pragmatic architect and VIPER evangelist, he champions modular app design, TDD/BDD and thoughtful custom UI/UX that scales across iOS, macOS and watchOS. Thomas blends hands-on prototyping with cross-functional leadership—coordinating roadmaps, security initiatives and multi-platform teams—to move features from proof-of-concept to public release. He’s equally comfortable managing and mentoring teams or self-directing client projects, and brings a background in 3D/point-cloud graphics that informs novel AR interactions. Colleagues cite his mix of technical rigor, empathy and dry humour as key to building high-performing teams and shipping ambitious products.
