Confiant: Real-Time Security for the Digital Ad Economy

Confiant protects the digital advertising ecosystem from malvertising, intrusive ads, and privacy threats. It gives enterprises, publishers, and ad platforms real-time verification so they can keep revenue, reputation, and user trust intact.

What I worked on

SDK engineering (iOS and Android)

• Swizzled system methods in Cocoa and the Android NDK to hook into partner apps safely.
• Re-signed .app and .apk bundles for third-party integrations.
• Shipped SDKs through SPM, CocoaPods, and Maven.
• Added BDD coverage with Cucumber running on BrowserStack.
• Jumped on integration calls to unblock clients and keep releases moving.

Core engineering

• Replaced deprecated dependencies across core services to reduce tech debt.
• Built a new modular testing framework to speed up CI and improve confidence.
• Refactored internal tooling so more teams could adopt it without friction.

Impact

• Fixed a vendor-specific Android bug for a Samsung AOSP device that had been blocking a key partner.
• Earned consistent praise from premium clients thanks to fast support and stable SDK releases.
• Helped keep Confiant's detection engine scalable by modernizing dependencies and test coverage.
