Über Alexandre
Hi! 👋
I'm Alex, freelance iOS developer and tech lead. Based in Berlin, working across Europe, and available right now! ✅
I speak 🇬🇧 English (Fluent), 🇫🇷 French (Native), and 🇩🇪 German (Conversational)
After 7 years shipping iOS features and 3 years leading engineering teams (iOS, Android, web, product), I went freelance to put that experience to work for your team.
🔧 How I can help you
As a senior iOS developer
- Join a team as reinforcement, short or long term, and ship with you from day one.
- Work solo on your iOS project: clearing a backlog, unblocking a release, getting a specific feature out the door.
- Take over a stalled or tangled codebase and put it back on rails with clean architecture and pragmatic practices.
As a tech lead
- Structure your codebase, set up CI/CD, Fastlane and proper code review.
- Bring a clear technical vision: audit your architecture, propose what to evolve, ...
- Automate what slows you down
As an engineering manager
- Hire the right people, unblock delivery, align tech with product goals.
- Review and rework your processes to hit the targets that matter (delivery, velocity, collaboration, ...)
- Coach developers so they grow faster and go further.
As an AI enabler
- Focus AI where it has value, skip the noise, build workflows that hit your goals.
- On Velibz, my solo side project, I leverage my capacity with an AI agent team: A PM agent shapes the backlog into user stories tied to real value. A tech lead agent turns them into an implementation plan and protects architecture. Dev agents follow the plan. A retrospective closes each session to improve velocity.
Let's talk!
Got a project in mind, or just a vague idea worth discussing?

Projekt- und Berufserfahrung
- FreelanceFreelance iOS Engineer & Tech LeadMärz 2026 - Heute (3 Monate)Available for iOS development and tech lead / EM advisory missions.Clients in DE and FR welcome.Remote and on-site possible.
- Side projectVelibzTRANSPORTWESENMai 2020 - Heute (6 Jahre und 1 Monat)Paris, FrankreichVelibz is a Vélib' companion app for Paris' public bike sharing system, built around two real commuter problems which frustrated me a lot: finding a free docking station near my office, and finding a working bike to go home. In Paris St-Lazare during rush hour, both were a daily lottery. Velibz solves the first with a geofencing notification as you approach your destination, and the second with a reliability score calculated from live bike data, so you spot the best bike instantly and adapt your route accordingly.I commuted a lot by Vélib daily before COVID (and after). When the lockdowns hit in 2020, I used the pause to finally build this, with the ambition to take it end-to-end and maintain it long-term. SwiftUI had just launched. Perfect timing to learn it on a real project.5 years in: iOS and watchOS apps, 7 targets, MVVM+Redux architecture, modular codebase (VelibzCore, VelibzUI), Siri Shortcuts, WidgetKit, CI/CD via Fastlane and Github actions / Xcode Cloud. Built and maintained solo, from design to App Store.~1k monthly active users. 3.4 sessions/month per user. DAU/MAU of 4.4. Sticky usage for a niche utility.The latest feature was built with an AI agent team: PM, dev, and review agents challenging each other through user stories, delivery planning, and code review iterations. A real product workflow, fully AI-executed!
