Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolChristopher Stover is a mathematician-turned-software engineer with nine years of experience building scalable scientific software, control systems, and applied ML solutions across industry and research. He has shipped production-ready tools from Mathematica-to-JSON converters and PDE-based vaccine models at Merck to MATLAB radar and hardware-in-the-loop simulations at Dynetics, pairing deep theoretical insight with pragmatic engineering. Comfortable across Python, C++, MATLAB, Mathematica and SQL, he routinely moves projects from messy notebooks to tested, maintainable code and CI-driven workflows. His background includes PhD-level mathematical research, technical leadership in cross-functional teams, and a knack for reducing redundancy and improving reproducibility in complex codebases. Based in Hahira, GA, he thrives on problems that sit at the intersection of rigorous quantitative methods and creative system design, and often brings unexpected domain breadth—from radar error-bounding models to vaccine simulation optimization—to every role.
