Austen Mcdonald Email and Phone Number
I've always loved building things and even after 20 years of coding, I still get a kick out of printing "Hello World!" and making the lights flash. Lately I've been building a platform and associated products to educate service providers working with special needs kids and support the families the care for.In my former life, I led engineering teams at Facebook to find and recruit a more diverse workforce, build the next generation social media for teenagers, and support News Feed on iOS. Even farther back, I conducted research into parallel programming models and the specialized hardware to support them.
