Top SchoolDavid Schaeffer is a software engineer with a decade of hands-on experience who blends a formal CS background from Northeastern with a curious, maker mindset evident in personal projects across C#, .NET, Python, React, and MySQL. He’s built productivity-driving tooling in biotech—authoring Flask apps and Benchling integrations that cut lab turnaround and manual work dramatically—and shipped modular TypeScript systems and React features at scale during industry co-ops. As a TA for database design, he mentors students weekly and brings practical SQL and data-modeling expertise to collaborative teams. Now at Aspen AI, he applies both full-stack chops and a neuroscience-informed perspective on problem solving to build reliable, automation-first software.
