Summary
Jacquin Buchanan is a senior software engineer and founder with a multi-decade track record of designing novel products—from the first handheld speech-to-speech translator to pioneering non-linear video editing and a cloud CAD platform for prosthetics. He blends hands-on architecture and full SDLC execution with team building and mentorship, currently contributing to underwater acoustics analysis at JASCO while scaling O&P Cloud CAD for clinical use. Comfortable across embedded systems, IoT telematics, scientific modeling, and ML-driven CAD, he repeatedly turns domain complexity into practical, deployable systems. Known for integrating mission-driven work with operational discipline, he also brings an unusual combination of entrepreneurial grit and contemplative leadership as a practicing Buddhist and community co-founder.
