Summary
Philip Schlump is a principal software engineer and entrepreneurial technologist with a multi-decade track record building production-grade systems from embedded real-time controllers to enterprise GIS, ML-driven database tooling, and blockchain cryptography. He founded and led SenWare (AutoDBA) to a successful acquisition, later taught blockchain and databases as a Professor of Practice at the University of Wyoming, and has since built privacy- and security-first products including distributed threshold encryption and AI-powered job-application tooling. Philip blends systems-level architecture (Go, PostgreSQL, distributed fault-tolerant services) with hands-on ML, cryptography, and frontend work, and he’s comfortable moving between research, product, and commercialization. Unconventional detours — an MFA in 3D ceramics and five years living aboard a sailboat — underscore a practical creativity that surfaces in elegant engineering and unusual problem framing. Based in Laramie, he now focuses on secure, user-centric platforms that scale in adversarial environments.
