Summary
Chip Overclock (pen name of John Sloan) is a product developer based in Arvada, Colorado with over three decades of hands-on experience building systems that span the extremes—very large distributed, real-time, high-performance services as well as resource-constrained embedded and highly concurrent devices. He works close to the metal on embedded and real-time platforms, translating low-level engineering into reliable products for commercial and open-source ecosystems. Active as a freelancer and principal at Digital Aggregates Corporation, he maintains an open-source presence on GitHub and a technical blog under his pseudonym, demonstrating continual public experimentation and knowledge sharing. Holding a B.S. and M.S. in Computer Science from Wright State University, he pairs deep academic foundations with a rare breadth of practical systems experience that surfaces in both large-scale architectures and tight, low-latency embedded designs.
