Larry Archer is a seasoned software engineer with 17 years of experience building reliable systems from embedded firmware to cloud-scale infrastructure. He blends a strong C/C++ and systems background with web and usability expertise—Python, Ruby on Rails, PHP, JavaScript and information architecture—enabling him to own both low-level performance and user-facing design. At Cloudflare he progressed from systems engineer to engineering manager, then returned to hands-on engineering roles, showing comfort with both leadership and deep technical work. His early tenure at IBM Power Systems and UT Austin highlights expertise in processor verification, automation, and tooling that improved team efficiency and test automation. Based in Austin, he now applies that breadth to product-focused engineering at RunReveal, pairing heuristic usability practice with robust backend engineering. Colleagues would note his knack for pragmatic automation and for translating complex hardware and protocol problems into maintainable software.
