PROFILE

Zhi Zhou

Over a two-month period, this developer focused on stabilizing iOS network and UI scheduling paths in open-source projects. In microsoft/react-native-macos, they addressed a crash during request operation cancellation by introducing mutex locks for thread-safe access to operation queues, effectively resolving race conditions and improving reliability for iOS network operations. Later, in software-mansion/react-native-reanimated, they fixed an intermittent crash in the IOSUIScheduler by using a weak reference to self within asynchronous dispatch blocks, preventing memory safety issues when the scheduler was deallocated. Their work demonstrated strong proficiency in C++, Objective-C++, concurrency, and iOS development, delivering targeted, maintainable bug fixes.
