Hi, Jordan here. I've been doing Platform Engineering before it was a term people used. I've been the leader on big ambitious projects, and really difficult migrations/cleanup. I've worked at startups that were acquired, and run my own. I've done everything from infrastructure (including bare metal) all the way up to front end design. My biggest strength is helping organizations "grow up", and put friction in the right place to increase speed of delivery.

Résumé/CV: Available upon request

Email: andrewtretteljobs at sent dot com. Please include information about the position when contacting me.

Hi, I'm Andrew Trettel. I'm a scientist with a PhD in mechanical engineering looking for any potential opportunities outside of academia. I have over a decade of experience in scientific research, especially on the numerical side. I have years of experience in writing software for and running large simulations on high-performance computing (HPC) systems. I have also developed software for non-scientific purposes, like creating user interfaces for desktop applications. I have years of experience working with large datasets, including the tasks of calculating statistics and developing hypotheses/models/theories from data. I've worn many hats over the years and love learning new and interesting topics.

Nice to see more Sysadmin type person such as myself out there! You seem to have great programming languages to back it up too. But I definitely miss the days when Linux Engineer was more of a main job. I've transitioned to Devops, but I definitely miss being more focused on scaling performance on bare metal, or VM's rather than moving everything to the cloud and everything being containers.

I almost took a job at NASA Ames with a veterans org that would have worked on a lot of the lander stuff. My career has done well, but I kinda regret not pursuing that further.Good luck going forward, don't have any work just wanted to say something when I saw a similar resume.

    Location: DC/NoVA
    Remote: preferrable, but willing to come in one or two days a week
    Willing to relocate: unlikely, but possible
    Technologies: C, C++, Python, x86 & ARM assembly, Altium/Kicad, JavaScript, HTML/CSS
    Résumé/CV: ask me
    Email: xevek@protonmail.com
i'm a reverse engineer, software developer, and embedded systems expert with about 15 years of experience. my secret to avoiding burnout is to work on and learn as many new things as possible in full immersion style and i'm currently in the throes of a raging ML obsession -- i would love to do more work related to it.

as far as hardware goes, i'm experienced with robotics (remote control, sensors, motors, actuators, etc), motion simulators, microcontrollers, embedded x86, audio amplifiers, express racks (for the ISS) and a bit of RF and analog electronics. on the software side, i'm intimately familiar with c, c++ and python, but i can read most code and understand it, including assembly (there were a lot of misspent hours in IDA pro during my youth). while i know javascript, html, and css i am not interested in writing web apps again.

when it comes to ML, i'm proficient with pytorch debugging and i can full finetune extremely large models (120B+) with sft or offline RL (dpo/kto). i've had to do my own data wrangling, so i'm familiar with most of the chat templates/prompt formats of LLMs and converting to and from the various dataset formats that training software uses. i am familiar with most LLM architecture internals and i follow mechanistic interp papers and research, so i train a lot of steering/control vectors on gemma and peek at them with the gemmascope sparse autoencoders. i've trained new output heads for pretrained models, permanently imbued models with control vectors and run abliteration/orthogonalize activation steering, and i can fix your axolotl container when it inevitably breaks under the weight of the hf/torch ecosystem.

i'm a seasoned hacker but my position has turned into project management, which i hate. tech lead or bust. liberate me and i'll be your friend forever.

Do: contact me if you're looking for a professional who wants to get things done. Don't: contact me if you want me to sit in meetings all day. i am not built for that.
