Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolSeth Benton is a writer-developer and MSEE-trained signal processing engineer with 14 years of experience building production software, technical documentation, and algorithmic trading systems from Portland, OR. He combines DSP and machine learning expertise with practical full-stack skills—prototyping audio ML in MATLAB, porting to Python, and deploying Django/AWS web apps. At Decred he blends technical writing and development, parsing blockchain governance data and building databases to support research, while earlier work includes a profitable crypto mean-reversion bot deployed to major exchanges. Comfortable turning complex engineering into clear documentation and repeatable systems, he also has hands-on experience managing remote teams and shipping cloud-native pipelines. A less obvious strength is his ability to move prototypes into production across domains—from audio signal processing to crypto—bridging research, code, and user-facing product.
