Summary
Charles Gunyon is a seasoned full-stack software engineer with 15 years of experience, currently based in Amsterdam and focused on building products for social good. He has held engineering and tech lead roles across nonprofits, political tech, and private sector firms—most recently at Elevate Strategies—bringing a pragmatic blend of backend, embedded Linux, and web systems expertise. His background spans high-impact campaigns and mission-driven organizations (including Hillary for America and Paladin, PBC), evidence of an ability to translate complex civic and policy needs into reliable software. Comfortable across the stack and in leadership trenches, he pairs hands-on implementation with a systems-oriented perspective honed over diverse environments. Off the record: he prefers email contact over LinkedIn messages and keeps a low-profile GitHub presence despite a long track record of production engineering.
