I productively zoom in on details with engineers and zoom out the to 30,000 ft view with CEOs, CTOs, and CFOs. When designing a user interface, an API, a database, or a development pipeline I uncover the needs of all stakeholders, and dig to understand what is really needed rather than simplify what is asked for. Here are some highlights of my work as developer: I wrote optimized simulation code in C++ vs a MEX interface to Matlab. I've used Mathematical software such as Maple and Mathematica while completing my PhD in Mathematics to test, formulate, and prove various hypotheses. After graduating, I spent some months kernel hacking FreeBSD. I served as a lead developer (full stack) and architect of an enterprise SAAS company that is still going strong. I implemented an online board game at yucata.de. I write several interesting and useful algorithms for both myself and my clients. I have used linear programming to help clients optimize and automate various business decisions. My ability to assist in the design and discovery process of projects allows me to deliver more value to clients than they usually think possible.
