Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolAlec Ostrander is a software engineer and consultant with nine years of experience building data-driven systems that bridge research, product, and operations. He specializes in data engineering, visualization, and human-computer interaction, having architected multi-stage data warehouses and ETL pipelines that process terabytes of satellite data for crop yield and risk modeling. Alec brings full-stack fluency—from React front ends and GraphQL APIs to containerized back ends and CI/CD—plus a researcher’s rigor developed during an HCI MS where he built toolkits for team performance assessment. He has moved between startups and enterprise contexts, delivering retail systems, CRM integrations, and geospatial model inference services while promoting TDD and user-centered design. Based in Des Moines, he combines a practical focus on production reliability with a passion for applying tech to education, agriculture, and social impact. An uncommon thread in his work is translating experimental research methods into production analytics pipelines that inform real-world decisions.
