Summary
Michael Boulos is a backend-focused software engineer with eight years of experience building high-performance, production-grade systems at companies ranging from startups to Google. He leverages a strong mathematics background to model solutions quickly and optimize for marginal gains, having driven major efficiency improvements and refactors in NLP pipelines and manufacturing MES products. At Anthem he cut extraction runtimes by over 97% and at Sepasoft led UI and backend work that powered conference demos and complex equipment-graph interactions. Now contributing at Google while maintaining ties to SemanticBits, he thrives on difficult puzzles, mentoring peers, and rigorous code review practices that prevent bugs from reaching production. Based in Folsom, CA, he prefers environments where he isn’t the smartest person in the room and seeks teams that value discourse, craft, and measurable performance wins.
