About

Senior iOS Engineer · Oakham, UK

Hi, I'm Adam. I've been writing software for over two decades, and the last sixteen of those have been on Apple platforms.

What pulls me in is engineering craft: clean architecture, well-designed APIs, the kind of code that's a pleasure to come back to six months later. Most of that's played out in mobile, but I'm equally at home in a server-side codebase, a CI pipeline, or a meeting room making the case for an architecture change.

The bit I enjoy most is helping engineering teams ship work they're proud of, through mentoring, tech talks, and championing the practices that compound, from TDD to thoughtful AI-assisted development. Outside of work I maintain an open source Swift package, build personal projects for the joy of it, and write here. The thread running through all of it: build things properly, and build things people actually use.
