Chris Samuelson is a Freelance Full Stack Engineer and technology leader with over a decade of experience building embedded, web, and cloud systems—particularly in IoT and connected-device applications. He blends hands-on firmware work in C/C++/Rust with full stack web and mobile development (Ruby on Rails, React, native iOS/Android) and seven years of production AWS deployments. Chris has led engineering teams as CTO and VP of Technology, scaling solutions from single-site client/server networks to retail backends across hundreds of locations and web-scale cloud services. He focuses on pragmatic decisions that balance short- and long-term business goals, risk reduction, and cost management, and brings operational depth in Linux HA, nginx/Apache, Lucene/Solr, Chef/Ansible, and monitoring. Based in Holland, Michigan, he’s equally comfortable sketching product strategy with stakeholders as he is shipping embedded device firmware.
