Deep Experience with Apple Platforms
- 16 years at Apple, contributing API design and code to AppKit and macOS, working across system framework layers, and helping internal and 3rd party app teams achieve results
- 4 years as an indie Mac developer, building experience with App Store requirements, the submission/review process, and how to get things done from the outside (see TypeMetal!)
Other Specialties
- mission-critical flight software (sensor interfacing and GNC on the SpaceX Starship project’s SuperHeavy booster, in a multi-node Linux environment)
- game and game tools development (pushing Sony PlayStation hardware to its limits, developing 3D model processing, lighting, and VRAM layout tools, and building and maintaining custom art pipelines)
- graphics and animation programming (from building a raytracer and subset OpenGL implementation, to image processing and pixel-pushing at the bitmap and framebuffer level, to SVGA/EGA chipset programming and 3Dfx Glide interfacing, to bringing Core Animation layer-backing to AppKit NSViews)
- low-level hardware interfacing (Windows VxDs, ISRs, 8259 PICs, 16550 UARTs, SVGA and EGA chipsets, and Apple // hardware, back in the day)
- scientific computing (quantum + classical modeling of atom-diatom collisions; physics lab device interfacing and operations)
- parser development (for custom scripting languages and natural language recognition)
- network comms and CMS interfacing (developed TypeMetal‘s content sync engine and JSON/XML-based WordPress interfacing)
- Swift, Objective-C, C++, C, Ruby, Python, TypeScript, JavaScript, x86, R3000, 6502
