Summary
Max Temnogorod is a software engineer with 11 years of experience who blends a cognitive science-informed perspective with practical engineering to build clean, user-centered systems. He has shipped backend APIs, integration tests, and internal tools at IBM and Moven, and now contributes to Proscia’s engineering efforts from Philadelphia. Comfortable across stacks—Java/Spring, React, React Native, PHP/Laravel and deployment tooling like Ansible—he focuses on reliable, maintainable code and intuitive UX. His background in psychology and hands-on research with geriatric cognitive testing gives him a unique sensitivity to human factors in product design. Colleagues describe him as deliberate about leaving systems and teams better than he found them, pairing curiosity with pragmatic delivery.
