Chris Kolek Email & Phone Number

Chris Kolek is a Principal Software Engineer at FIGS. He possess expertise in java, software development, programming, c++, eclipse and 36 more skills. Colleagues describe him as "I worked with Chris either in the same team or in closely related teams for more than 2 years. Although I met Chris when he was fresh out of college, I was very impressed by his mature thinking in the workplace. His software engineering skills are excellent and his code is clean, pretty and concise. It was a joy for me to be part of his code review team! Chris is able to move from one server Java-only application to a script and then to a Web-based application within minutes and effortlessly. His versatility is off the chart! Chris works very well by himself (most of the times he will figure out things by himself) or in a team. In a team environment he will jump to help in any area that is behind. I think any organization would be lucky to have Chris as their employee!", "Chris worked closely with me for evaluating a couple of 3D face matching algorithms for time of flight 3D cameras. Chris, on his own, build the biometric test harness in C++ and came up with ROC curves for the different camera channels. He even installed the R-package on his own, and did some advanced statistical analysis on these results. I am very impressed on how independently and quickly he could do all these, especially given that graduate students specializing in biometrics are trained to do such analysis (and Chris is only an undergrad). Chris also was a great and patient test subject for the 3D ToF camera based active presence detection system that I developed. He tested it continuously for 6 months (8+ hours each day), and was great in providing feedback from the early/buggy stages, to the stage where it has become mature and pervasive. I thank him for helping me make the product better.", and "Chris was a great addition to the FIX development team. He quickly picked up the business knowlege and a very complicated code base in time to contribute valuable unit tests, bug fixes, as well as some great improvements to our broker FIX simulator. I would highly recommend Chris as an addition to any programming team."
