About Sebastian
My name is Sebastian Celis, and I am an iOS developer living in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
I graduated from Carleton College in 2003 and immediately began working for Stellent, a local software company focused on content management. I worked with an amazing team on the Stellent Content Server, a product written mostly in Java with a web-based front-end. In 2006, Oracle announced that it would acquire Stellent. The acquisition took place later that year.
As soon as Apple announced that they were opening up the iPhone OS for 3rd-party developers, I knew that I wanted to change my career path and develop mobile apps. So in my spare time, I created a simple application that I had always wanted called Epicure. Soon after that, I joined the team at Mobiata, helping to create amazing travel apps for both the iPhone and iPad. Six months after I joined, Mobiata was acquired by Expedia.
Since I was hired at Mobiata, I have personally worked on major releases of FlightTrack, FlightBoard, and Expedia Hotels. I have also been particularly interested in streamlining our build and localization processes.
