Senior🎓
Top SchoolMatt Bernhardt is a Senior Software Engineer with 13+ years building web and digital-fabrication platforms for academic settings, currently at MIT Libraries. He blends full-stack web development (PHP, Ruby, Python, JS) and databases (MySQL/MariaDB, MongoDB) with hands-on experience in IIIF, cloud migrations, WordPress/Drupal, and search infrastructure. His background in architecture and long-running roles coordinating laser cutters, 3D printers, CNC, and scanning gives him a rare mix of systems thinking and physical making. He’s delivered projects from web-scale discovery solutions to digital fabrication programs and maintains freelance and soccer-statistics projects that reflect strong data and visualization instincts. Colleagues know him for translating institutional needs into educational platforms that enable student and faculty expression and investigation. Based in Arlington, MA, he’s as likely to discuss build pipelines as he is soccer analytics.
