I provide the following services: - Fractional CTO: I will work with you to clarify your visionary goals into an actionable technical roadmap; help you secure funding if necessary; and then run the technical operation start to finish. - Web and native app development: From napkin-sketch ideation to 7+ figure production, I will deliver intuitive, elegant digital experiences to your customers, from top-rated games and 3D virtual worlds to FDA compliant medical software, on the web and on devices. - Solving “unsolvable” tech problems. Examples of real projects I was engaged for: building a low power “hurricane proof” weather camera (Weather Channel); assisting with the development of the Semantic Reactor (a Google/Alphabet internal project); building a physical neural network entirely out of glass. - Technical project management: I will ensure your project runs on time and on budget, with incremental milestones and mitigated risks, using the best of Agile and PM tooling. I can manage teams large and small. - Productionalizing Research. Give me the research paper or the patent, I’ll make it real and scalable. - Consulting, with lawyers and attorneys, as a software engineering resource, for instance with respect to contracts and other legal matters (like Privacy Policies or GDPR/CCPA concerns). - Modernization of old technology: I will migrate and modernize your legacy application using the industry’s latest best practices. I have experience with performance tuning, scalability, devops, security hardening, penetration testing, and much more. - Teaching and coaching: I teach middle and high schoolers competitive coding. I enjoy tapping into every student’s life story and motivations. I also advise entrepreneurs and can act as a sounding board for personal and professional goals. - Solutions Architect: I provide comparative analysis of modern cloud technologies and explanations of how to use them for different scenarios.
