Summary
Jake Bailey is a senior software engineer and applied mathematician with a decade of experience building scalable, reliable systems across defense, cloud, and consumer platforms. He combines algorithm design and GNC expertise from Raytheon with cloud and Android engineering at Microsoft and Google, and currently serves on the board of Minor League Esports. His work spans high‑availability distributed systems, flight‑critical guidance algorithms, and DevOps-driven architectures, reflecting a rare blend of theory (PhD in Applied Mathematics) and hands‑on implementation. Jake has led teams maintaining million‑line legacy codebases and advised younger engineers while also shipping cloud media and storage services at scale. Based in Kirkland, WA, he pairs academic rigor with practical manufacturing and machining roots, giving him a pragmatic approach to problem solving and system reliability. Colleagues can expect a technologist who moves fluidly between low‑level algorithms and large distributed systems while mentoring teams through complex deliveries.
