Senior🎓
Top SchoolBrian Batchelder is a veteran software engineer and technologist based in Portland with over four decades of coding experience and a BS (Magna Cum Laude) in Computer Science from Cal Poly SLO. He blends deep firmware, systems and standards expertise from a long HP tenure with modern mobile and IoT practice—shipping iOS apps, embedded firmware for automotive IoT, and platform contributions like enhancements to Urban Airship’s widely used iOS SDK. As a serial builder and occasional startup CTO, he has designed architectures, instituted development processes and led SCM improvements that prepared teams for scale and acquisition. One of the first 5,000 iOS developers, he pairs prolific hands-on implementation with a taste for experimental projects (from crowd-sensing at sporting events to Alexa skills), and still enjoys tackling whatever software domain he hasn’t tried yet.
