Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolWilliam Porter is an iOS engineer and backend-focused software generalist with 12 years of experience building high-throughput, event-driven systems and native apps. He’s shipped systems that process hundreds of thousands of rates per minute at Qantas, led cross-team platform re-architecture work, and now builds consumer-facing iOS products that blend audio, TTS pipelines, and generative AI. Comfortable across Clojure, Ruby, Swift, TypeScript, and Python, he bridges full-stack infrastructure (Kinesis, SQS/SNS, Lambda, Terraform) to polished mobile experiences. As a founder of DEEP and SpeechHeroes, he pairs product intuition with hands-on engineering to move prototypes into real user-facing releases. Based in Cairns and a certified freediving instructor, he draws direct inspiration from his personal pursuits to inform product design and user experience. Open to remote roles, he prefers backend- or infrastructure-leaning positions where small teams ship meaningful, reliable systems.
