Maximilian Maksutovic is a Co-Founder and seasoned software engineer with nine years of experience building audio and music-focused apps, hardware integrations, and rapid prototypes that bridge startups and large enterprises. He leads Compiler Inc., where he raised initial funding and shipped developer tooling, backend systems, and AI inference features, while consulting on complex cross-platform audio products for clients like Guitar Center and DigiBrass. His technical toolkit spans iOS/macOS (Swift/Objective-C), Android, C/C++, firmware, Bluetooth/MIDI, and novel backend translation schemes that enable single codebases across platforms. A trained composer and performer, he translates musical intuition—improvisation, composition, and audio production—into pragmatic engineering solutions that unlock product possibilities others dismiss. He’s repeatedly taken hardware-constrained projects from firmware to polished apps, inventing logging and command schemes that simplify QA and customer support. Based in San Francisco, he balances product-first speed with deep audio-hardware expertise and a quietly human-centered ethos.
