About Frans

Senior iOS problem solver for complex apps, with AI as an accelerator and project management experience as an added strength.

I am an experienced iOS developer with 7+ years of full-time Swift/SwiftUI experience, specializing in complex app environments, modernizing existing codebases, and reliable delivery to the App Store. Additionally, I closely follow the rapid rise of AI tooling: in recent months, I have delved deeply into agentic AI tools for iOS development and how they can concretely help development teams with analysis, refactoring, code quality, and acceleration.

Through 30+ years of IT experience as a developer, DevOps engineer, and IT project manager, I bring more than just technical execution. I have a broad perspective on software development, strong analytical skills, and a keen sense for planning, prioritization, stakeholders, and team dynamics. I enjoy structuring complex issues and always want to understand the 'why,' not just the 'what.'

I prefer to work in an engaged team, with a product owner who is open to collaboration and sharp thinking. I am accustomed to large organizations and complex environments, even when they are sometimes bureaucratic or sluggish. It is precisely there that I can move smoothly, bring calm, and help maintain progress.

Within teams, I am technically strong but not status-driven. I enjoy working towards collective success, grant others their role and results, and am a reliable sounding board for developers, product owners, and stakeholders. When things get tough, I remain calm, analytical, and persistent until a good solution is found.
