Summary
Philip Trettner is a founder and CEO with 13+ years of deep C++ engineering experience, specializing in algorithms, computer graphics, and exact image and geometry processing. He earned a PhD-era reputation for publishing faster, more accurate, and more robust algorithms and now translates that research-grade rigor into commercial consulting and product work through Shaped Code. Philip builds high-performance C++ libraries, architects an experimental programming language aimed at balancing efficiency, productivity, and safety, and has applied his skills to procedural generation and mesh processing in industry settings. Pragmatic about real-world constraints, he insists performance need not be sacrificed for shipping software and routinely optimizes both algorithms and system architecture. Based in Aachen, Germany, he combines academic depth with entrepreneurial drive and a hands-on obsession for squeezing every last bit of efficiency from code.
