About Bob

My name is Bob McCune. I’m the owner of TapHarmonic, an iOS consulting and training company based in Minneapolis, MN. I’ve been developing software in a variety of industries since the mid-90s. I’m a strong proponent of Agile methodologies and practices as I have seen first-hand how they can help teams produce better software, faster.

Much of my career has been spent designing and developing enterprise software solutions for the Java platform. I have extensive experience with framework and infrastructure development and have particular expertise with the Spring and Hibernate frameworks.

My professional focus for the past few years has been on the iOS platform. I have extensive experience developing for both the iPhone and iPad and have a deep understanding of the unique challenges and opportunities inherent to this new class of mobile devices. I and TapHarmonic are currently engaged at Thomson Reuters on a large scale enterprise iPad application.

I am also the founder and leader of the Minnesota CocoaHeads user group. I started the group about 3 1/2 years ago and we have continued to grow and build a vibrant user community of Mac and iOS developers. If you’re interested in Mac or iOS technology I’d like to personally invite you to join our group!

On a personal note I have been happily married since 1999 and have two amazing children ages 8 and 10. I have been greatly blessed to have such a wonderful, supportive family!

My principal hobby is the guitar. I’ve played for over 25 years (I should be better by now). I always assumed I would have a career in music as it was the only passionate interest I had as a kid, however, I found the technology field to pay considerably better than the starving musician field. Hopefully I’ll someday figure out a way to combine my love of music and interest in technology into a viable career. Hey, it could happen!
