Isaac Perez
I build apps, media, and local communities — turning ideas into products people use every day.
Scroll
I design and ship iOS apps and the brands around them — from food trucks to pickup basketball — obsessing over the details that make people come back.

Experience
Where I've worked.
Tinder
iOS Engineer
2026 — Present
Building features for one of the world's most-used dating apps — millions of users, where a dropped frame is a matter of the heart. Focused on launch performance and iOS tooling.
Nextdoor
iOS Engineer
2021 — 2025
Four and a half years scaling the iOS app for the neighborhood network connecting millions of neighbors — core features in Swift, SwiftUI, TCA & Combine, and the experiments that decided what stayed.
About
I'm an iOS engineer and founder based in Los Angeles, building products that connect people to their local communities — a street vendor around the corner, a pickup game across town.
Off the clock I run CapturedByIP, a photo and drone brand. I care about the intersection of technology, media, and the real world — and about shipping fast and learning from the people who use what I make.
