Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolColin Bayer is a senior frontend engineer with 15+ years of software experience and nearly a decade building full-stack TypeScript and React applications on Node.js. He co-founded and operated Cohost.org, a subscription-funded long-form social network he built with one other engineer that served ~200k users and required wearing product, ops, and legal hats. His background spans web-based 3D games, AR prototypes, mobile voice control, and scientific collaboration tools—work that blends UX-driven design with production-grade engineering and Kubernetes operations. Now at Carbon Robotics in Seattle, he continues to focus on shipping user-centric frontends while experimenting with hardware and small electronics on the side, bringing a rare mix of frontend polish, backend ownership, and hardware curiosity.
