I have spent my career straddling the line between infrastructure management and software development. I've worked for a Fortune 200 company and been the first technical hire at a startup.

I've touched far more technologies than I could reasonably list here (or even remember), but my primary strength isn't any of them: it's being able to step into a role, work with stakeholders to understand the business priorities, find the gaps in the current coverage, and make the world a little more robust.

I've masqueraded as a technical writer (see discussion of one of my favorite blog posts at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6722408 — all of my Basho posts are archived at https://web.archive.org/web/20170801133203/http://basho.com/...), presented at conferences about NoSQL data modeling, Apple MDM, Erlang, immutability, and logical time (but not concurrently), jumped in to help my employer with a NLP project in my evenings and weekends, created a WebSphere deployment DSL, trained co-workers on TCP/IP and UNIX, and written kernel software (but not for, admittedly, a very long time).

(At Basho I started copy-editing their marketing materials while still in the hiring process; that was a lesson in keeping my head down, but fortunately they hired me anyway.)

Let me make your life a little bit easier.

I'm a mathematician with 4 years of research and teaching experience post-PhD. I'm looking to leave academia for a job in software engineering, data science, or anything where my math and computer skills can be useful.

As a mathematician, I am used to tackling hard problems without established solutions. I learn quickly, and through years of teaching and presenting my research I am also good at communicating complex ideas. I've been programming for most of my life, and often use computer experiments in my mathematical research. Some projects are on my website. I have also worked in the industry a bit before my PhD (on simulation software in C++ and C#).

I especially enjoy relatively low-level programming, performance optimization, Linux kernel development, embedded devices, and similar things. More recently, I started reading about and experimenting with machine learning (my math background is useful there).

Hello! I'm Micah, a Product Designer with a background in edTech and biochemical research and a knack for creating lovable designs and interfaces with high business value. For my current role I recently designed a V1 landing page that increased our conversion rates by 60%. I also created several LinkedIn Ad creatives publicizing a new product launch that averaged click-through rates of 7.43%, significantly surpassing the average (most LinkedIn ads average a CTR of 0.39-0.69%).

I’m passionate about creating high-quality products that make a real difference for the people who use them. I’m looking for opportunities to leverage my product and design expertise, dig deeply into user feedback, collaborate closely across multiple teams, and contribute meaningful value to real-world users.
