Summary
🎓
Top SchoolJacob Williams is a Senior Software Engineer in Toronto with five years of experience building full-stack systems that connect mining domain expertise to web-scale production tools. He blends a mining engineering background (MEng, McGill) and hands-on research in discrete optimization with modern TypeScript, Next.js, Rust, C++ and data infrastructure to deliver faster, cost-saving solutions—examples include ETL replacements that cut costs 80% and an experimentation service serving millions of requests daily. Jacob has shipped geostatistical and mine-optimization tools, machine-vision point-cloud processing, and cross-language microservices, showing a rare mix of domain depth and production engineering. He’s known for creating SDKs and shared services that improve developer velocity and for squeezing performance from heterogeneous data stores to dramatically reduce load times.
