Senior🎓
Top SchoolGordon Childs is a seasoned Full Stack Media Engineer with 12 years of experience building low-level audio and video capture, encoding and playback systems across iOS, macOS, Windows and backend services. He has repeatedly solved thorny platform and licensing challenges—rewriting system audio drivers and architecting system-level capture features for companies like Loom, Zight and Atlassian—while shipping high-precision playback engines for ElevenLabs. Comfortable as a founder and solo operator, he runs Async Pty Ltd providing end-to-end iOS consulting and has a track record of owning everything from driver-level code to product design and docs. Based in Tuscany and trained in mathematics and computer science, he pairs deep signal-processing instincts with pragmatic engineering to tackle real-time media problems others punt. An unusual strength is turning research-quality algorithms into robust production components, from sample-accurate audio players to cross-platform screen and system-audio capture pipelines.
