Client

ALCAD Electronics specializes in digital systems that serve the healthcare, security, and entertainment sectors. Their products are engineered in Europe and distributed across multiple international markets.

Problem:

ALCAD had an iOS app developed in Objective-C by a third-party company, which was experiencing critical VoIP-related issues and required urgent updates to support newer iOS versions.

Solution:

I joined the project for a short-term collaboration to fix urgent bugs and implement new improvements. One of my key responsibilities was redesigning and implementing the entire video call architecture natively using AVFoundation, ensuring seamless integration with ALCAD’s intercom hardware system without relying on any third-party SDKs.
