★★★★★★ So, you must have stumbled across my profile because: ★★★★★★ 1. You're an existing friend who wants to see what I'm up to these days.2. You're a recruiter/hiring manager and want to poach me.3. You want info on the special projects group at Apple (sorry that's not going to happen).In a nutshell, I'm a biohacker, cloud phr33k, mentor, husband, father, and friend. I've been creating/using ubiquitous systems before they were called clouds (think of the BBS days) and when I was a teen one of my most precious possessions was my computer with a 2400 baud modem that I saved up to buy with money from my paper route. I have a hands off management style, but do enjoy being hands on when I can (kind of hard when your org size is 30+). I hire the best to make sure I'm not in a position to have one of those tough conversations. Rather than touting myself, have a look at my profile, my website (http://www.consultmak.com), and connect/send a message if you would like to talk further.Have a great day!Obligatory keywords: java, c++, swift, netty, python, cloud services, biohacking, biochemistry, biology, concurrency, event driven programming, management, automation, high performance computing, HFT, HPC, HIPAA, AI, ML, LLM, CNN, MPI, generative AI, Apple, iOS, HD mapping, ADAS, SLAM, self driving cars, self driving vehicles, health & wellness, autonomy, autonomous vehicles, neural networks, model training.
