Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolRoy Dunn is a software engineer based in Seattle with 19 years of hands-on experience and a formal background in Computer Science from Eastern Washington University. He progressed from intern to associate and now software engineer at Schweitzer Engineering Laboratories, focusing on reliable, performance-minded systems. As an open-source contributor to the Nim language core libraries, he has improved asynchronous dispatch, stream handling, and build tooling—work that underscores his attention to low-level performance and tooling robustness. He pairs academic rigour (3.6 GPA) with practical product experience, and minors in Cyber Security and Web Development that broaden his systems and security perspective. Known as a determined, fast learner, he brings both solid engineering fundamentals and a track record of improving language internals and build processes.
