Summary
Cole Wiley is a software engineer and computer vision specialist with 13 years of experience building end-to-end systems from GPU-accelerated C++ cores to React frontends and Node.js microservices. He has co-founded and led technical teams to production—most notably architecting a widely adopted 3D scanning platform that surpassed one million downloads and served medical customers. As a fractional CTO and product lead he helps early-stage teams turn ambiguous product visions into scalable architectures and operationally mature platforms. His work spans edge intelligence, real-time data pipelines, and cloud-integrated AI systems, with hands-on fluency in C++, Python, TensorFlow/PyTorch, React, and AWS. Based in New Orleans, he blends new media art sensibilities with rigorous engineering, often bridging creative and technical stakeholders to craft interfaces between people, systems, and the physical world. He’s driven by building the “unpaved roads” in code—practical bridges that make complex systems interoperable and impactful.
