Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAlexander Mills is a systems engineer and repeat founder with a decade of experience turning operational complexity into practical leverage across aviation, manufacturing, and hardware-software ecosystems. As co-founder of GraphPlan and Logbird he has built platforms that link CAD/PLM intent to as-built reality and digitize handwritten aircraft logs to surface safety-critical anomalies and streamline change approvals. He blends low-level hands-on skills—CNC, welding, PCB rework and embedded firmware—with production software practices like containerization, CI pipelines, and observability for safety-critical deployments. His work consistently targets high-variation, high-stakes environments where traceability and root-cause insight reduce costly escapes and speed decision-making. Comfortable leading end-to-end projects from customer discovery to field pilots, he has a knack for encoding trade-skill expertise into software so operators can move faster with fewer mistakes. Based in San Francisco, he pairs engineering rigor with product intuition to build tooling that makes messy, real-world systems auditable and actionable.
