Aplázame

Context & scope

I worked on the native iOS experience for Aplázame, a payment instalment product, collaborating closely with the Product Owner, Android engineer, backend team, designers and business stakeholders. The scope stretched well beyond implementation and required connecting product decisions to engineering feasibility and release readiness.

How I contributed

I led the iOS technical work across the product lifecycle: evaluating design proposals, raising feasibility and complexity concerns, refining API contracts with backend, implementing features and preparing TestFlight builds and App Store releases. I also demonstrated the product to company stakeholders. I took hands-on technical responsibility and did not formally manage an engineering team.

What I worked on

• Reviewed proposed screens and interaction designs to anticipate implementation complexity and suggest feasible alternatives.
• Participated in refinement sessions with product and backend, discussing API contracts, integration requirements and edge cases.
• Implemented iOS features end to end while coordinating dependencies with Android and backend.
• Prepared builds and managed TestFlight distribution to internal and test users.
• Handled App Store Connect submissions, Apple's app review process and the release to the public App Store.
• Presented product demonstrations and progress updates to stakeholders across the company.
