Summary
👤
SeniorMichael Geary is a veteran Customer Experience Engineer with 17 years of hands-on software engineering across startups and major tech companies, currently building conversational/ordering systems within IBM following his team's acquisition. He blends low-level systems expertise (drivers, PDF internals, Windows API hacks) with modern web, Python and C++ development—shipping everything from VR launchers and synchronized video players to large-scale GIS and mapping projects at Google. Known for pragmatic engineering: he once cut a data importer build from eight minutes to one second and optimized a clustering job from eight hours to two minutes. Michael focuses on making complex systems invisible to users, whether smoothing VR installs, automating order takers, or building developer-friendly SDKs and APIs. Based in Menlo Park, he prefers titles that emphasize serving the end user and enjoys solving weird, “impossible”-sounding integration problems that others avoid.
