Motivated new grad looking to help software companies achieve results such as saving 20% of the program budget and improving program performance by over 5X.Some examples include:• Doubled server uptime, saved 20% of the program budget, and ended over 4 weeks of delays by coordinating resource sharing with other departments during maintenance. • Improved performance of a program by over 5X (over 5-minute run time reduced to under 1 minute) by designing and implementing better algorithms.• Improved performance of a calculation by up to 200X over the original unoptimized version, and by 29X compared to the optimized serial version. Achieved by implementing a combination of parallel programming/multithreading, algorithm and cache optimization, and SIMD instructions.I get excited about opportunities where I solve challenging problems that directly impact the end user. I prefer working on back end projects with C#, Java, and Python, or low-level projects with C and C++.I am especially excited by projects involving high-performance computing (HPC), numerical computing, and low-latency programming.I love connecting with new people, you can reach me via LinkedIn or at mwskar@gmail.com.If you are reaching out regarding a potential opportunity, please include “career opportunity” or “job opportunity” in the headline.
