Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolDave Reese is a senior front-end engineer and founder with over 20 years of experience, currently leading front-end development at Sakari while building Flowstate Taps, a solo bootstrapped hardware startup he founded. He blends hands-on software and hardware design with product strategy and marketing, bringing meticulous attention to user-centric solutions and practical product requirements from concept to market. Previously he scaled teams and shipped frontend systems as an Engineering Manager and Senior Frontend Engineer at Edge Delta and led client-facing development at Fresh Consulting. Based in Seattle, he pairs creative roots in media arts and motion design with deep technical chops in modern front-end engineering, making him equally fluent in UX storytelling and production-grade code. Notably, he often bridges gaps between design, hardware constraints, and go-to-market tactics—an uncommon cross-disciplinary strength for a frontend specialist.
