Summary
Jim Berry is a seasoned software developer with 30+ years of hands-on experience translating hard technical problems—math, physics, cryptography, graphics, simulation, and embedded systems—into practical, shipping code. He’s equally comfortable writing low-level assembly and foreign-function interfaces as building consumer-facing applications, with a long history in video games, mobile platforms, and experimental blockchain multiplayer systems. At ConsenSys he helped prototype peer-to-peer, cryptographically verifiable gaming systems (The Apian Framework and Virtue Poker), blending research and production engineering. Jim has repeatedly moved between freelance and product roles, shipping everything from console and feature-phone titles to iOS healthcare apps and hardware prototype firmware. He favors pragmatic solutions that survive product release cycles and enjoys debugging devices that literally have wires sticking out of them. Based in Meredith, NH, he holds a physics/astronomy BA and brings a rare combination of system-level depth and consumer-product sensibility.
