About

Iโ€™m Yashvant Sikarvar, a Lead iOS Engineer and Freelance Developer with 12+ years of experience building high-impact mobile applications. I hold an MCA from IIT Roorkee and a degree from Aligarh Muslim University, bringing a solid mix of technical expertise and problem-solving ability to every project. Over the years, Iโ€™ve worked across Swift, SwiftUI, Objective-C, and C++, with deep experience in UIKit, Combine, Core ML, ARKit, and CloudKit. My focus is on designing scalable architectures (MVC, MVVM, VIPER, Clean Architecture), optimizing performance, and integrating advanced capabilities like AI/ML, Core NFC, Bluetooth, and GPU-accelerated programming. Iโ€™ve led teams, delivered apps to the App Store, and helped companies scale their mobile platforms with CI/CD pipelines, automated testing (XCTest, XCUITest), and cloud integrations (Firebase, AWS). Beyond code, I enjoy mentoring developers and turning complex requirements into simple, user-friendly experiences. ๐—œโ€™๐—บ ๐—ฎ๐—น๐˜„๐—ฎ๐˜†๐˜€ ๐—ผ๐—ฝ๐—ฒ๐—ป ๐˜๐—ผ ๐—ฐ๐—ผ๐—ป๐—ป๐—ฒ๐—ฐ๐˜๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด with product leaders, engineers, and innovators who are passionate about building next-generation iOS experiences.
