Senior🎓
Top SchoolBen Montgomery is a Principal Research Engineer at BBN/RTX with 11 years of experience building APIs, simulations, and parallel algorithms in C, Python, and Java. He combines academic rigor—M.S. in Computer Science and a Summa Cum Laude B.S.—with applied research at Raytheon/BBN, where he progressed from associate scientist to principal engineer. His work blends machine vision, real-time control, and physics-based simulation (including NASA-sponsored projects) and emphasizes extensible code and reproducible pipelines. A night-owl developer who thrives in late-night dev sessions, he has produced open-source Python tools from university research and presents technical work at conferences.
