Summary
Gene Kochanowsky is a seasoned consultant and hands-on software engineer with 11+ years of focused experience delivering mission-critical systems for Florida state agencies and private clients. He blends deep systems and database expertise with full-stack .NET development, having repeatedly rescued and re-implemented complex projects—from accounts receivable and licensing systems to survey engines and disaster-prep applications. As a longtime founder and technical lead, he’s designed electronics, firmware and GPS fleet solutions as well as scalable web apps and ETL pipelines, demonstrating rare fluency across hardware, embedded firmware and enterprise software. Colleagues describe him as fiercely dedicated and unafraid of hard problems; he deliberately builds tools that improve maintainability and performance under real-world constraints. He mentors others and pays forward lessons learned from a career that spans startups, state government and research institutions. Based in Tallahassee, he pairs near-PhD rigor in physics with a Stanford machine learning certificate, bringing analytical depth to pragmatic engineering.
