Summary
Andrew Herr is a senior software consultant with 12 years of experience building and operating full-stack and distributed systems, currently consulting at Test Double from Denver. He combines deep product and domain understanding with hands-on engineering—shipping Elixir, Ruby on Rails, Java-backed microservices, and deployment automation to manage distributed energy resources and utility-grade applications. His background spans technical leadership, sustaining engineering, and field work in renewable energy, giving him a rare perspective that connects low-level hardware realities to robust cloud software. A former manager and project lead, he prioritizes mission alignment and local work-life constraints (he bikes to work from Lakeside), preferring roles that match his values and tackle sophisticated problems. Academically grounded in physics and electrical engineering, he brings rigorous analytical training and practical systems experience to every engagement.
