Miguel Avilés Jenkins

Senior Software Engineer & iOS Developer

10+ years at HPE — Aruba Networks, leading QA teams and building Python automation for enterprise networking products. I work deep in L2/L3 stacks, design test strategies, and push code through Gerrit and CI. Lately I've been putting that same precision into iOS — SwiftUI apps with CoreML, HealthKit, and Firebase.
