Senior
🎓
Top School
Daniel Matteson is a missile tracking algorithm engineer with 15 years in aerospace and nine years focused on software-driven state estimation, prediction, and anomaly analysis for advanced threats like hypersonic glide vehicles. Based in Boulder, he combines hands-on algorithm development at Northrop Grumman with a practical systems background from General Atomics, bridging firmware, avionics integration, and lab-scale real-time simulation. He co-founded a proprietary trading firm where he built backtesting, ETL pipelines, and 3D data visualizations—demonstrating an ability to turn complex data into actionable strategies and even raise seed capital. A pragmatic programmer who codes PHP, JavaScript and dabbles in Swift, he values pair programming and unit testing and brings a tinkerer’s approach honed through RF, GPS, and mechanical troubleshooting.
