Summary
Demond Love is a founding software engineer and data-focused developer with 8 years of experience building production systems across biotech, supply chain, and analytics. He holds an M.S. in Data Science and combines strong Python, Java, ML, and AWS skills to deliver data-intensive applications from prototype to production. His career includes senior engineering and staff roles at Lyell Immunopharma and LLamasoft, where he bridged machine learning and engineering to solve complex optimization and bioinformatics problems. Now based in Seattle, he’s launched Specular to apply that cross-domain experience to new product challenges. Colleagues describe him as pragmatic and detail-oriented—comfortable leading architecture decisions while still digging into code and models. An uncommon strength is his background spanning tax, support, and data science roles, which gives him a practical, end-to-end view of product and operational needs.
