Make complex apps easier to move forward
At Jumbo, I created a SwiftUI-first path over legacy UIKit, LayoutKit, and Objective-C foundations using MVVM, repositories, and provider boundaries.
Kieran Standeven - app builder
I build thoughtful apps.
I like working close to the product: shaping the interaction, building the app, shipping it, and improving it over time. That has meant university, lottery, logistics, retail, and independent product work across Flutter, Swift, SwiftUI, Firebase, maps, and large production codebases.

How I work
Product thinking, backed by engineering depth.
I tend to be most useful where product detail, platform knowledge, team systems, and delivery all meet.
Turn UI decisions into maintainable systems
At QUT, I led Material 3 restyling across colours, typography, spacing, components, light mode, dark mode, and tablet support.
Build and maintain independent products
Pin Masters, Death-o-nome, and Local Golf are where I pressure-test new technology in real products: app UX, maps, Firebase, Flutter web, game feel, hosting, analytics, and the practical tradeoffs that only show up once something is live.
Featured projects
Selected products with live links and previews.
Three independent apps across course mapping, music practice, and game loops, each with a live surface you can open.
Pin Masters
Golf GPS and course operations platform built around yardages, routing, pace insight, alerts, and course mapping.
pinmasters.app
Death-o-nome
A stylised Flutter metronome with a precise timing engine, animated character, custom audio, and macabre visual identity.

Local Golf
A playable golf game on real course maps, with shot mechanics, daily challenges, leaderboards, shot maps, and 3D putting.

The engineering depth behind the product work.
Languages and frameworks still matter, but mostly because they show what you can responsibly ship, maintain, and improve with a team.

Available for the right senior app work
Need someone who can help shape and ship the app?
I am strongest where product decisions and engineering judgement need to meet: Flutter, Swift, migration strategy, team patterns, and details users can feel.
