Summary
David Clark is a PhD-trained full-stack software engineer with 11 years of experience who blends rigorous quantitative training with practical product delivery across front- and back-end systems. Currently an Engineer II at CrowdStrike, he has built features and APIs using React/Next.js, TypeScript, Node/Express, Java, PostgreSQL and GraphQL, and automated services in AWS and Jenkins. His background as an award-winning university Teaching Fellow and Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts surfaces in clear technical communication, mentorship, and data-focused problem solving. Past roles include production work on consumer-facing gaming front ends and backend proxy/API systems in defence, reflecting a comfort switching between UX, real-time features, and complex integrations. He often pairs statistical tools (R, MATLAB, Stata) with engineering to deliver analytically robust solutions that are also production-ready.
