I have 6 years of experience, mostly back-end. Currently on the machine learning team at a startup where I have been building and maintaining LLM-based products in production, architected and implemented the platform code powering all of our LLM offerings, and functioned as tech lead for our main RAG system.

I have a very devopsy mindset, previous founder experience, and experience quickly building and iterating on MVPs from scratch. Ideally looking for somewhere I would be a very early engineer and get to set the direction, or somewhere where I could work in a non-Python, non-TypeScript language.

Location: The New Jersey suburbs west of New York City.

Remote: Yes but also in-person in NJ or NYC.

Willing to relocate: No.

Technologies: Generalist developer/researcher in the quantitative space. Most recently Python but have breathed Java/C/C++/Fortran in past work. I like floating point numbers. http://github.com/RhysU has academic (ar, ESIO, suzerain); tooling (c99sh, jobserver); and fun (droll, tuna, war) code.

I enjoy quantitative problems at the intersection of math, programming, and engineering where the nature of the application demands attention to correctness. Graduate education in interdisciplinary computational science, engineering, and mathematics in HPC settings. Presently sitting out a non-compete for quantitative finance.

I'm Tucker, an industrious senior software engineer with 7+ years of experience as both an individual contributor and technical lead across non-profits, for-profit product development companies, and research labs.

I am a generalist with a very broad set of experience, with expertise in system's programming using strongly typed languages. I've done everything from bare-metal assembly code, to FPGA gateware, to Linux kernel modules, to Windows GUI work, to front-end web development. Very "T shaped".

I'm also a seasoned public speaker, having given talks at various conferences including NetworkX, prpl Summit, and SCTE Expo. Quite happy giving customer-facing demos, too.

My ideal role is where software is the product, and I can leverage my expertise in high-performance, resource-critical environments that value deep systems knowledge.

If you're looking for an industrious engineer who adapts quickly and delivers reliably, please reach out. :^)
