Resume
iOS Engineer shipping at Plum, building Syrmos and Conservatio across iOS, Android and the web, and open sourcing Kujto.
I build Apple-platform products that feel fast, clear and dependable, with a bias for small, well-named systems over clever ones. At Plum Fintech I work in the Engagement Team on Plum's core iOS app, shipping features for the people who use Plum every day to save and invest with less friction. The stack is Swift, SwiftUI, UIKit and The Composable Architecture, with MVVM, MVP, VIPER and pragmatic MVC where they fit better. In parallel I design, build and ship products of my own. Syrmos is a Kotlin Multiplatform transit app for the Athens metro, tram and suburban railway, offline-first and underground-ready, with live departures for daily commuters across iOS, Android and the web. Conservatio is a conservation documentation platform for cultural heritage, used by conservators, museums and heritage authorities, with structured condition reports, controlled vocabulary and branded PDF exports. Kujto is a versioned, bilingual open-source AI memory framework that keeps Swift and iOS architecture decisions portable across Claude, Codex, Gemini, Copilot and Cursor. PromptBar and imjaDNS sit alongside them on macOS and iPadOS. I hold an Integrated Master's in Informatics and Computer Engineering and Full Stack and iOS Development certifications, and I bring an ownership mindset to everything I build, from architecture and code quality to delivery and long-term maintenance.

Recognition & Contributions
Issued by City of Athens · November 2025
Selected among the Top 20 ideas and apps out of 120 contestants at Apps4Athens Hackathon 2.0: AI Edition, held at the Serafio Complex of the Municipality of Athens. LocAbility focused on turning accessibility and mobility into a real decision-making tool, from everyday movement to bigger life choices such as choosing where to live based on how inclusive and navigable a neighborhood truly is. The hackathon brought together 40 teams and more than 250 participants using AI, open data, and mentorship to tackle city challenges across mobility, energy, tourism, inclusion, and smart infrastructure. The recognition reinforced the idea that accessibility should be treated as a core smart-city KPI, not an afterthought, and pointed to the next step: turning prototypes into public services that make cities smarter, greener, and more human.
