Andrew Glaze is an Information Technology Intern and software developer with nine years of hands-on experience building interoperable systems and user-focused applications. Based in Georgia, he has implemented cross-application infrastructure for a county government, supporting data sharing across six+ systems while assisting dozens of end users with practical problem-solving. An active open-source contributor, Andrew has improved update mechanisms and async workflows in PlayCover and added token management, crash reporting, and auto-update functionality to the native Swift macOS client Swiftcord. He blends full-stack and iOS/macOS skills—refactoring update flows to Combine and designing intuitive changelog and settings UIs—to deliver smoother user experiences. Collected academic training in computer science from the University of Georgia complements his operational experience with equipment logistics and customer communication, where process improvements reduced losses by 30%. He brings a pragmatic, security-aware mindset (aptly hinted by his GitHub quip about sandboxing and user behavior) to shipping reliable, maintainable software.
