Summary
Harry Hummel is a founder, software engineer and data scientist with nine years of modern engineering experience layered atop a long career in finance, consulting and entrepreneurship. He builds production systems in Python, TypeScript, Scala and AWS, and has launched businesses from bake-to-order ERP (Glorious Grain) to municipal services (RecycloBuddy) while writing trading algorithms and portfolio tools at Event Horizon Capital. At HealthVerity he worked on privacy-aware patient-journey data platforms, and his current startup PatternFoundry.ai applies AI to decode operations across 18,000 municipalities. A CFA charterholder with a Ph.D. from Harvard, he blends rigorous quantitative modeling with hands-on product and business turnaround experience. Not obvious from titles: he repeatedly ships lightweight, revenue-driving software for niche operational problems rather than just exploratory prototypes. Based in Lower Merion, PA, he publishes code and technical work on GitHub and advisory.ai.
