Summary
Mason Cooper is a pragmatic full-stack engineer and entrepreneur with 11 years of experience building frontend systems, developer tooling, and mobile games/apps. He’s led frontend work at Palantir—rewriting state and network layers, mentoring teams, and shipping public documentation—then moved into founding roles and indie app development with Joy Quest and Overjoy AI. Comfortable across React, Kotlin, React Native and Godot, he’s also built incident-response tooling and automation (including a company-wide Slack bot and Jira plugins) that remained in production use. Based in Jersey City, he blends hands-on engineering with operational reliability and a maker mindset—he even ran a small crypto-mining operation where he modified firmware and built monitoring bots.
