**iOS Developer with experience at Apple and at Wells Fargo. Have app HarmonyCalc on the App Store. Background in music and editorial.** At Apple, I grew as a developer and leader. There, I worked on a relatively large codebase that contained legacy Objective-C, AppKit with Swift, and SwiftUI code. The numerous different kinds of fixes and additional features I implemented on this app made me confident in being able to solve any technical issue within my domain. My leadership skills also improved, as I had the opportunity to help onboard new team members, document the app’s architecture in detail, and help manage the project on which I worked. Working on my project at Apple, I was able to finish new features ahead of schedule that worked flawlessly and were covered by unit tests. I helped team mates become unblocked and complete tasks faster. At Wells Fargo, part of my role included researching and implementing new technologies, and my work in this helped lead to a US Patent submission. At TruU, I built a whole new logging module that was used to report the majority of new bugs. My co-workers have praised my technical competence, ability to learn quickly, and willingness to receive feedback graciously.

For Arc’s permanent (full-time) engineers, the process begins with a manual profile review and a quick chat or video self-introduction to assess their communication skills and eligibility to be featured to companies. Next, we let them choose either a coding challenge or a technical interview, both of which take about an hour to complete. If they make it past that, we’ll onboard them as a verified developer, and they become eligible to get featured to companies who want to hire engineers on Arc.
For freelance engineers, we first conduct a manual profile review, scouring their online profiles to make sure they have a solid technical background, work experience, and other elements. We then ask them to send a video self-introduction to assess their English, communication skills, and other soft skills important to effectively working remotely. Next, we hold either a technical interview or peer programming session to assess their hard skills, followed by a final candidate review. If everything goes well, we’ll have an onboarding call to welcome them onto the Arc platform.
Arc offers a wide range of services for those who want to hire remote engineers. Whether it's full-time, part-time, or freelance developers, you can find pre-vetted, interview-ready remote developers worldwide on Arc.
