Joe Triscari is a founder and senior software engineer based in the Portland metro area with a deep, research-driven pedigree in optics, signal processing, and machine learning. He spent decades at the intersection of science and engineering—rising from mathematician roles in defense research to principal scientist positions at SAIC, Apple, and Google—building algorithms and scalable software for imagery, LADAR, hyperspectral sensing, and geolocation. Joe now leads Spectrum Aperture, developing low-cost, high-speed hyperspectral sensors that reflect his long history of turning novel sensor concepts into practical systems. He combines hands-on algorithm development, high-performance computing experience, and product-focused web tooling to make complex imaging science accessible to non-experts. Colleagues would note his uncommon blend of academic rigor (PhD in Laser and Optical Engineering) with entrepreneurial drive and a habit of staying current on emerging technologies while prioritizing family life.
