Howdy, friend! I'm Depa :)
I'm a Lead Mobile and Backend Engineer working with React Native and Node.js on the jpg.store mobile team. I'm a senior software engineer with +9 years in iOS development and +4 years with React Native. You can expect from me honesty, proficiency and the desire to help.
There is a lot of dogma on the internet about how to do things. My approach is to build from the ground up and explain the reasoning behind abstractions (only if they are necessary). I will teach you how to think, not just give you a recipe to follow (because there is no single solution to a problem).
«For men of experience know that the thing is so, but do not know why, while the others know the ‘why’ and the cause. Hence we think also that the masterworkers in each craft are more honourable and know in a truer sense and are wiser than the manual workers, because they know the causes of the things that are done» (Aristotle, Metaphysics A1)
I graduated as a software engineer in Argentina and performed further studies in Austria, achieving a Master's Degree in Software Engineering. I'm back at university studying philosophy (so yeah, it's not only software we can talk about!).
I have given technical talks at Swift Meetups, led multiple teams, and mentored people through Codementor. In addition to mobile programming, I am also experienced in backend, Python, React, and multiple other programming languages.
I have contributed to companies such as Apple, Theorem, Brubank, Wolox, AIT, Mimo, and MURAL.

5 out of 5 stars
Depa is super knowledgeable about React Native and mobile apps and helped me get my first app off the ground. His knowledge of core React Native stuff, expo, emulators, navigating the app store, TestFlight, RevenueCat, performance, drastically sped up my timeline to get a full prototype in the hands of users. He helped me avoid a lot of common pitfalls as a first time mobile dev, while also letting me know what stuff I could worry about later so I wouldn't get overwhelmed. As a mentor he has beed attentive, quick to respond, and thoroughly interested in my project/goals and helping me achieve them. I plan to keep working with him for the foreseeable future and would highly recommend him as a mentor!
