Top SchoolSi Dawson is a veteran software engineer and founder with 30+ years of hands-on coding across assembly, C#, Python and full-stack web and systems work, currently leading mobile gaming studio EggsBacon from Wellington, NZ. He specialises in radically streamlining operations and rebuilding systems end-to-end—turning multi-hour processes into single clicks and extracting extreme performance from modest hardware. A long-term AI practitioner (20+ years) he’s built neural nets, expert systems, genetic algorithms and genetic programming to “grow” solutions, and has applied those skills to algorithmic trading with measurable out-of-sample gains. Comfortable in startups and large global organisations, he pairs entrepreneurial instincts with deep technical craftsmanship in databases, backend optimization and UI/UX. Notably, his past projects include a viral Twitter behavioural filter that saved users enormous time and high-performance trading and analytics engines that cut load times from minutes to seconds.
