Paul Kollmorgen is a seasoned software engineer and founder with over three decades of programming experience, currently running Galden Studios and Knockout Nerd from Redmond, WA. He spent 22 years at Microsoft designing and leading backend and cloud services—from scalable Office Live Workspace document conversion systems to Azure-based orchestration engines for Office 365. Equally comfortable with large distributed architectures and small, performance-sensitive components (including game sound engines), he is a persistent advocate for automated testing and has been the "unit test" champion on many teams. Known for tackling complex tasks reliably and shipping with few bugs, he also applies his engineering skills to product design and cost-reduction tooling for hardware manufacturing. His career blends enterprise-scale cloud engineering with hands-on ownership and a knack for improving developer productivity through build and tooling improvements.
