Anthony Bullard is a seasoned software engineer and frontend architect with 14 years of experience, currently serving as a TC39 Delegate and Senior Staff Software Engineer in Chicago. He blends production-grade frontend architecture at ServiceNow with deep language and compiler interests—contributing substantive backend work to the Gleam language, including a formatter, type-system fixes, and enhanced documentation generation. His career spans startups he co-founded to roles at Google and TrueAccord, demonstrating both product-led entrepreneurship and large-scale engineering execution. Anthony is equally comfortable shaping web UX and digging into language grammar and error handling, a combination that informs safer, more maintainable systems. Fluent in pragmatic leadership, he mentors teams while driving technical direction at standards-level bodies and the enterprise. An unexpected detail: his formal study in Korean at the Defense Language Institute hints at an aptitude for structured, cross-disciplinary learning that complements his deranged programming-language curiosity.
