Summary
Steve Gipe is a Lead Software Engineer with 11 years of experience building cloud-native, high-performance systems for aerospace and defense applications. He has driven multi-million dollar impact by introducing machine learning for aerodynamic modeling, modernizing legacy simulators, and refactoring monolithic codebases into scalable services that handle thousands of aircraft daily. Skilled across Golang, Kotlin, Java, C++, Python and React, he shortens delivery cycles and eliminated lengthy deployments through automated CI/CD on Kubernetes. His work blends deep aerospace domain expertise with pragmatic engineering—e.g., cutting a 5-day data ingest to 20 minutes and turning 12-hour intelligence timelines into near real-time. Based in Denver, he pairs rigorous academic research in aerospace with hands-on production delivery and a knack for finding elegant, measurable optimizations in complex systems.
