Summary
Lewis Karl is a senior software developer with seven years of professional experience building Windows services, desktop applications, and database-backed systems for industries ranging from satellite telecommunications to healthcare. He currently develops medical coding, terminology management, and EHR/EMR software at Medicomp Systems, drawing on deep expertise in C#, VB.NET, C++/MFC, and SQL Server/Oracle. His background includes leading product development and research at COMSAT Laboratories and consulting on satellite systems analysis for Lockheed Martin, giving him uncommon domain knowledge in signal/coverage analysis and orbital mechanics applied to software. Lewis is comfortable across the full development lifecycle—systems analysis, object-oriented design, UI design, data modeling, and numerical analysis—and has a track record of shipping robust agent/packaging and lifecycle-management tooling. Trained with an M.S. in Computer Science and dual B.S. degrees, he pairs formal engineering rigor with practical delivery focus. Though now based in Vienna, VA, his GitHub notes hint at a global perspective rooted in Havana origins, reflecting a curious and international mindset.
