Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMike Cichonski is a lead software developer and founder with nine years of experience building data-driven, production-grade systems across academia and industry. He blends cognitive science and neurolinguistics research experience with full-stack engineering skills to architect petabyte-scale data infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, and user-focused web services for projects like the Canadian Data-Intensive Astrophysics PLatform. Equally comfortable inventing products solo as CEO of Halo Media and coordinating multi-institutional engineering efforts, he has a proven track record of turning fragmented legacy systems into standards-aligned, scalable platforms. His technical breadth spans Python, TypeScript, PostgreSQL/PostGIS/Timescale, cloud-native patterns on AWS/CanFAR, and ML/NLP tooling, while his work in EEG pipelines and venture-data normalization shows a knack for extracting signal from messy scientific and business data. Known for shipping pragmatic automation that saved thousands of manual hours, he thrives in fast-paced, cross-functional teams and communicates complex technical tradeoffs to non-technical stakeholders. Based in Toronto, he combines research rigor with product instincts to deliver reliable, well-tested systems that serve real-world users.
