Summary
Raymond Huffman is a software engineer with 11 years of experience focused on distributed systems, infrastructure, and databases, currently building backend systems at Palantir in New York. He combines industry experience—multiple stints at Palantir plus internships at Tesla, Lockheed Martin, and Citco—with research work at MIT CSAIL and the Julia community, showcasing both production-grade engineering and academic rigor. Raymond has a strong embedded and systems background from MIT Motorsports and early genomics and ML research, which gives him a knack for bridging low-level constraints with large-scale distributed design. He holds a BS and MEng from MIT in EECS and is comfortable implementing everything from ETL pipelines and optimization in Julia to resilient database infrastructure. Colleagues would describe him as a hands-on engineer who moves between research prototypes and production services with equal ease.
