Summary
Toby Fernsler is an applied mathematician and software engineer with 20 years of experience designing and shipping signal-processing algorithms and production-grade software, including code used in FDA-regulated medical devices. As President of Fernsler Services he consults on algorithm development, mathematical auditing, and tough debugging/optimization challenges, translating research code into design-control–compliant systems. His background spans neuroscience (leading development of the widely used EEGLAB Matlab toolbox), biosciences (converting research systems for the PlexID platform), geospatial processing, and radar signal work, giving him a rare cross-domain fluency in detection, filtering, and noise cancellation. He is known for concise, stable code, a knack for creating realistic data simulators and unit-test frameworks, and for rescuing projects through principled troubleshooting. Based in Boulder, Colorado, he combines deep theoretical training (MA and ABD studies in mathematics) with hands-on engineering that targets real-world, regulated deployment.
