Hi there! I’m Erez Hod, a Software Engineer with a soft spot for Apple platforms development (iOS, iPadOS, macOS) and Developer Experience (DevEx).

I am mostly recognized as the co-founder of Hero Apps, Ltd, a software company which was later acqui-hired by fitto, Ltd.

My passion for programming began at a young age (12 years old), and since then, I've accumulated over 12 years of experience in the tech industry, gaining a versatile skillset across various software domains: UI/UX, Front-End, Back-End, DevOps, Mobile, Product Management, Project Management, Sales and Marketing, you name it. Think of me as a software Swiss Army knife!

Beyond software development, I have a huge passion for music production, amateur photography, and sports cars.

If you want to chat, you can find me geeking out on X (Twitter RIP), Threads, and Instagram or check out my blog; see some of my code on GitHub and my full résumé on LinkedIn.
