Senior🎓
Top SchoolEvan Christensen is a software engineer with a decade of experience and four years focused on building and modernizing high-availability, business-critical systems, currently improving Union Pacific’s CADX train dispatching platform. Comfortable across C++, C, Python, Java, and JavaScript, he blends systems-level rigor with practical modernization work and has applied that discipline to a cleared aerospace internship developing the AR-1500 airborne radio. Based in Des Moines, he’s pursuing an MS in Computer Science (4.0) while maintaining hands-on engineering roles and hobbyist projects—his GitHub persona hints at compiler experimentation alongside professional game-studio programming. Evan is drawn to complex, safety- and reliability-sensitive domains and brings a track record of turning legacy dispatching tools into more resilient, maintainable systems.
