Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolSandro Hawke is a Senior Software Engineer II with 17 years of experience building web standards, decentralized systems, and credibility tooling to make the open web more trustworthy and user-controlled. He combines deep research credentials from MIT CSAIL and W3C technical leadership with hands-on engineering in JavaScript, C/C++, Python and semantic web technologies (RDF/OWL/SPARQL/RIF). As co-chair and editor of the W3C Credible Web Community Group he helped define practical, non‑censorial approaches to credibility assessment and prototyped trust-network tools through consultancy and startups. He founded core pieces of a walkable, data-portable app platform at Writable Site and has a track record of turning standards work into working prototypes and implementations. Based in Waltham, MA, Sandro is equally comfortable negotiating consensus in standards bodies as he is shipping production code. He often brings less obvious strengths—formal logic and ontology design—to bear on real-world trust and interoperability problems.
