OUR SERVICES

Custom App Development

Life is complex and so is your product. Ray Spectrum accompanies you on the journey of crafting the custom mobile application aligning with your specific requirements.

From concept to execution, we ensure that your app solves the user's needs, offers a seamless and smooth experience, and truly reflects your brand identity. Our comprehensive range of services can be individually tailored to meet your unique needs.

Testing

Quality is non-negotiable to us. We test your app to make sure its functionality, reliability, and performance meet your standards.

Based on your specific needs, we offer the implementation of tests at any depth, starting from unit tests over integration tests to complex end-to-end tests. If desired, we can also implement more specific tests, such as stress tests.

UI/UX Design

At our core, we deeply believe in the power of great design. We can either work with your company designers or offer exceptionally skilled designers ourselves, making sure to focus on creating intuitive and visually stunning interfaces that captivate and engage your target audience.

App Maintenance & Support

Our commitment doesn't end with the launch of your app. We provide ongoing maintenance and support services to ensure your app remains bug-free, up-to-date, and secure.

Continuous Integration

Any software project should rely on robust CI/CD processes, allowing the software to be automatically tested, built, and delivered, and enabling the project to scale on different axes like headcount, number and size of code repositories, test depth, and software variants. We support you in setting up, adjusting, and extending your CI/CD environment, so your team can focus on the core product.

Consultation and Strategy

We offer expert consultation services, such as feature ideation and prioritization as well as overall mobile app strategy. Together, we define the most effective path to achieve your goals.

We RELy ON

EXPERIENCE

We've been working on mobile apps for a decade and every day we are still learning something new. It all started when Swift was not even announced and the MVC architecture didn't have many alternatives. Since then, we were lucky to be part of many exciting developments.

Architecture is key

We advise you on the architecture most suiting your product. Be it Clean Architecture, MVVM, SCA, or our own modular single-entry architecture developed in-house, your requirements dictate which architecture to leverage.

Testing

Using software without tests is like boarding a plane without system redundancy. It might all work until something goes horribly wrong.

Together with you, we set up an ideal testing strategy and scope for your products. Critical components will always be tested.

High-performance rendering & more

We consider ourselves well-versed in all things rendering and parallel computing. With more than 15 years of practical experience in developing applications relying on OpenGL, OpenCL, CUDA, and Metal, we definitely look at GPUs as our big love.

Staying at the forefront of technology

Tech moves fast. We keep up-to-date and leverage the newest technology, once their stability allows.

For UI, we have a bias for modern declarative UI frameworks such as SwiftUI and Jetpack Compose but know to work with the traditional frameworks as well.

WE Cherish

OUR VALUES

Honest Communication

We believe in open, direct, and honest communication and we do not shy away from voicing our views, as long as they are related to a product's success.

Creativity

Solving great problems takes more than just a good idea but it all starts with one. We combine our technological experience with a mindset of thinking out of the box. It is better to think once than to code twice.

Simplicity

Hands down, life is complex and so is your product. We are always on the lookout for how to keep things simple, so we can focus on the difficult parts.

Mental Agility

In a fast-paced world, there's too little time for waterfall-esk software development. We work with an iterative approach, constantly refining our procedures and testing our premises.

Uncompromised Privacy

Personal data is a very precious good. We are committed to only gather and process the data required by law or necessary to allow for a correct functioning of our services.

Scientific Rigor

Most of the times, the stakes are too high for sloppiness. With a strong academic background, we make sure to provide solutions whose functioning is tested automatically, so you can sleep well at night.

ABOUT ME

Picture of Rouven Strauß

Mobile native with a passion for design

I have been working in the field of software engineering and development for almost a decade by now. My professional passions span a broad space, with local maxima at the fields of mobile development, image processing and computational photography, UI/UX design, and parallel computing leveraging the GPU.

The surroundings I thrive in the most are formed by highly motivated professionals, user-centric product development processes, interesting technical problems, and a clear company/project vision.

Hands-on experience & strong academic background

With practical experience at companies like Lightricks, Siemens, and Bending Spoons, I have had the privilege of working on demanding software projects with a focus on high-quality results. I have worked in cross-functional teams as well as technical R&D groups and have experience in leading other developers as a tech lead.

Several of the apps whose development I have actively lead or participated in were awarded with Apple's App of the Year and Google Play's Best App awards.

My work is based on a profound knowledge of computer science and software development concepts. With a B.Sc. of Computer Science from the University of Munich and a M.Sc. of Computer Science from the Technion - Israel Institute of Technology, I do not shy away from solving challenging technical problems.
