Summary
Michael Fulghum is a software developer with 10 years of experience building mission-focused, maintainable systems and delivering architectural solutions that translate complex, cross-disciplinary requirements into reliable software. He has led teams and mentored engineers on large DoD programs—integrating AI/ML, automating CI/CD, and shipping weekly releases for mission-critical maritime applications used by the U.S. Navy. Comfortable across C++, Rust bindings, Go, Python, and full-stack prototypes on constrained Linux devices, he pairs low-level technical rigor with strong stakeholder communication across “silos of excellence.” Based in Cambridge, he thrives in collaborative, results-driven cultures and brings an academic curiosity—evident from robotics and tutoring work—to practical engineering problems. An often-overlooked strength is his ability to surface business requirements from high-level dignitaries and turn them into testable, maintainable code.
