From discussing new features and his personal journey with the team to answering questions from our community, Aaron provided valuable insights into the technical challenges, design choices, and the exciting roadmap for Delta Desktop.

A Quick Introduction

I’m Aaron Israël, 28, and when I’m not coding, I enjoy staying active through running and bouldering. I’m also a big football fan and love catching a game whenever I can. I’ve been with Delta for almost a year now, and it’s been an incredible journey of learning and growth.

Developing Delta Desktop

Over the past year, I’ve focused on creating features for Delta Desktop and our new web app. I recently had the chance to work on the Home Feed feature for our mobile application, which was challenging but highly rewarding.

One of the aspects I’m most excited about is seeing the impact of our work on Delta Desktop. There’s something special about viewing a comprehensive overview of investments on a large screen, enhancing the user experience and helping investors stay in control.

Looking forward, I’m thrilled to continue building Delta Desktop with invaluable community feedback from platforms like ask.delta.app. Working closely with our Beta Squad allows us to create features that truly resonate with users and elevate the Delta experience. In 2024, I hope to integrate more user-driven suggestions to make Delta Desktop the ultimate tool for investors.
