Summary
Josh King is a Senior Software Engineer in Columbus, Ohio with 11 years of experience building reliable systems across finance, advertising, defense, and startups. Grounded in a mathematics-heavy education and graduate work in computational linguistics, he excels at algorithmic problem solving, JVM internals, and the “devil in the details” of system design. He has shipped production software at scale—from enterprise Wi‑Fi management and ad tech to mission-driven defense projects—and currently contributes to core services at Chase. Josh is motivated by learning and teaching, welcomes being proven wrong as a growth opportunity, and often digs into domains end-to-end until he fully understands them. A tinkerer since childhood (first hooked on a TI-95/4A), he also brings hands-on experience in hardware testing and statistical methods from his earlier research and contract work.
