Summary
Max Trias is a software developer with 13 years of experience who blends rigorous scientific training in physics with practical back-end engineering to tackle complex, data-driven problems. Based in Boulder, he has built and maintained core algorithms and data pipelines for home energy analysis, scaling systems that handle over a million customer accounts and multi-state utility datasets. His background in experimental physics and optics at Yale informs a methodical, measurement-focused approach to software design, testing, and automation. Comfortable with shell scripting, PHP, MySQL and API integrations, he excels at translating messy real-world inputs (fuel prices, rebates, audit data) into reliable recommendations and reports. Currently a full-time parent, he continues creative technical work—P5.js design, video editing, and comics—that demonstrates both technical fluency and a playful, interdisciplinary mindset. Colleagues would describe him as analytically driven, detail-oriented, and adept at turning scientific data into practical, user-centered solutions.
