Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolThuy Copeland is a software engineering manager who leads a distributed team of Apple-platform engineers building Day One’s iOS, iPadOS, macOS, and watchOS apps. With eight years of focused mobile engineering experience and 10+ years working remotely, she blends hands-on Swift/ObjC technical guidance with coaching, mentorship, and cross-functional alignment. She has driven large-scale Swift rewrites, localization efforts, and platform launches at high-traffic consumer products like Tumblr and WordPress, and brings practical CI/CD and testing improvements to reduce friction. Thuy pairs product-minded engineering with operational chops from running a small business—hiring, HR, finance, and support—which informs her pragmatic people-first leadership. She’s currently exploring AI-assisted development tools (Claude Code, Fathom, ChatGPT) to accelerate developer productivity and improve CI tooling. Based in Bemidji, Minnesota, she thrives in small teams that wear many hats to ship durable, user-focused apps.
