Ian Peters is a seasoned software engineer and founder with 11+ years building full-stack web systems and data-driven products, now leading a stealth startup in San Francisco. He brings deep expertise in web front- and back-end development, reusable component and library design, and production engineering from roles at Google, Amazon, and earlier at Yahoo!. Ian pairs that practical systems experience with research-grade strengths in information retrieval, NLP, machine learning, and semantic web technologies applied to social media and large-scale distributed data analysis. Comfortable across Python, Erlang, C/C++, Ruby/Rails and frameworks like Hadoop and Django, he also designs internal metrics and build tooling that improve engineering velocity. A MIT Computer Science alumnus, he blends hands-on coding with product intuition and a history of shipping Facebook apps and cross-platform web experiences — often focusing on extensibility and analytics rather than flashy front-end alone.
