Jake Fennick is a Senior Software Engineer with nine years of experience building high-assurance software, currently developing embedded systems in Haskell and Nix at Anduril Industries and holding an Active Secret clearance. He has led technical migrations and platform-building efforts—most recently moving a legacy workflow system to an open-source, CWL-based stack and designing cross-repository CI/CD with GitHub Actions to accelerate independent team iteration. Jake combines deep scientific rigor from a physics and mathematics background (including published work on dark matter and computational biochemistry) with practical product delivery, having helped develop an FDA-approved aptamer COVID-19 test and secured over $4M in SBIR funding. He mentors engineers, hires technical teams, and contributes to open-source workflow tooling, bringing a rare mix of research-level modeling, systems engineering, and production deployment experience.
