Summary
Michael Pascual is a versatile software engineer with 14 years of experience building cross-platform applications, backend APIs, and embedded integrations across Linux, macOS, and Windows. He has a broad language palette—from Python, Java, and C# to C/C++, assembly, Prolog and Haskell—and a track record of shipping production payment systems and API-driven services at companies like Helcim, Chroma, Petrotranz, and Wood Mackenzie. Comfortable in both startup and consultancy roles, he combines Agile product delivery with strong engineering practices (testing, migrations, ORM usage) and hands-on knowledge of networking and secure architectures. He’s also experienced integrating hardware (card readers, printers, barcode scanners) into software stacks, reflecting a practical systems-level mindset often missing in typical backend engineers. Based in Calgary with a BSc in Information Security, he brings both depth in low-level programming and breadth across modern web and cloud technologies.
