Summary
Dean Iverson is a seasoned software developer and research engineer with over two decades of experience building full-stack web and mobile applications, embedded systems, and real-time simulation software. As Senior Research Associate at Virginia Tech Transportation Institute, he leads applications efforts for connected and autonomous vehicle projects, designing JVM-based microservices, cloud deployments on Kubernetes, and rich client visualizations using D3, React/Angular, and Flutter. His background spans game and simulator engines, robotics, and automotive silicon design, giving him rare depth across low-level C/C++ systems and high-level Java/Kotlin web architectures. A published author on JavaFX and Android Flash, he combines hands-on coding with applied research, and even runs small family-led projects—from mobile games to autonomous UAVs—through his consultancy. Based in Olympia, Washington, he brings a pragmatic systems perspective to large-data transportation problems and an enduring curiosity about how hardware and software intersect.
