Overview

2012 to 2015, Mirada

AndCam was a mobile social media, camera, and photo-editing iOS app with photo stickers. Users could “Remix” other users’ posted photos which allowed them juxtapose their personal twist on the originals, and even to insert their own photo.

I contributed to every stage of AndCam’s software development life-cycle.

Role(s)

QA, Asset Management, App Developer

In a growing spectrum of roles from first as an intern software tester and asset manager, to a junior developer, then – as I continuously developed my skills and knowledge – a mid-level software developer & QA Engineer, I passionately worked on Mirada’s AndCam team. I’m grateful for the great mentors (Senior Devs) that helped me grow and contribute more as part of the dev team.

Team

Size: 4 to 15
Included: 2 to 3 Senior iOS Developers, Artists, QA, Producer, Art Directors

As part of the agile environment, participated in team sprint meetings to discuss tasks/progress, new releases, builds and changes to the application.
