Summary
Yuri Istomin is a Senior iOS Engineer with a decade of software experience and six years focused on building high-impact mobile products using Swift, UIKit, and SwiftUI. He has repeatedly translated business goals into measurable outcomes—driving 30-day retention and ARPU gains through extensive A/B testing, launching a 300K+ download app featured on the App Store, and cutting build times by 70% via modularization. Comfortable in cross-functional teams, Yuri combines product-minded engineering with hands-on implementation of architectures like Coordinator and SPM, and has improved conversion and engagement at scale across companies such as Tinkoff, ASOS, and Findmykids. He mentors engineers, runs technical interviews, and speaks publicly, showing a commitment to growing the developer community as well as the product. Notably, he pairs mobile UI/UX improvements with data-driven experimentation and has shipped performance and reliability gains (e.g., crash-rate improvements and real-time video filters) that directly impacted revenue. Now based in New York and currently at Lyft, he continues to focus on scalable, maintainable iOS systems that align with business strategy.
