About

With over 12 years of experience in developing robust, bug-free mobile and desktop applications, I have a proven track record of adapting quickly to new technologies. Throughout my career, I have successfully contributed to multiple high-profile projects, including Samsung DeX for PC (macOS), where I served as the lead application developer, and the ongoing SmartThings iOS project, where I have taken ownership of key features such as Settings, Contact Us, Report Error, and MapView.

In addition to my mobile app expertise, I contributed to Samsung Medison’s 5D Viewer, a desktop application for visualizing and post-processing 3D volume data from ultrasound machines. I led the integration of a graphics engine and developed a new GUI, handling complex medical terms and real-time data processing. Post-release, I played a role in fixing issues related to large datasets, ensuring performance and stability.

At SmartThings, I am responsible for enhancing the MapView, including adding new device cards (TV, light, etc.), and have worked on critical features like Do Not Disturb and Emergency Alert notification settings. With experience in the MVVM design pattern and the Combine framework, I ensure seamless integration and maintain performance while managing frequent quarterly releases and a large user base.

I am passionate about continuous improvement, maintaining high standards for code quality, and ensuring a positive user experience.

SmartThings (iOS)

The SmartThings iOS application is Samsung’s IoT platform that enables users to connect, monitor, and control a wide range of smart devices from their iPhone or iPad. It supports various devices, including TVs, lights, security cameras, and air conditioners, allowing seamless automation and remote access. Users can create customized routines, such as turning off lights and locking doors at bedtime, or automate actions based on location and sensor triggers.

The app also features MapView, a recently developed addition that visually maps IoT devices for easier interaction. Energy monitoring helps track power consumption, while real-time notifications and alerts keep users informed about security events, motion detection, and emergency situations. Integration with Bixby, Google Assistant, and Alexa allows for voice control, and Apple Watch support ensures quick access.

Additionally, SmartThings Find helps locate lost Samsung devices, and multi-user access lets family members share control of smart home devices with assigned permissions. The app continuously evolves, introducing new features every quarter to enhance the user experience and expand smart home capabilities.
