Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolZachary Pear is a software engineer with nine years of experience building scalable systems, currently working at Palantir in New York after internships at Amazon, Mark43, and finance and healthcare firms. He holds a Cum Laude B.A. in Computer Science (Intelligent Systems) from Columbia and has a track record of shipping production-focused optimizations—from a 3x latency improvement and distributed contention simulator at Amazon to search and ETL tooling that saved hundreds of man-hours at smaller firms. Zachary’s strengths lie in backend systems, search and indexing, and automation for large-scale data workflows, and he often tackles messy legacy data (PDF parsing, Excel automation) to unlock operational efficiencies. He pairs research-minded problem solving with practical engineering, having moved prototypes into distributed environments and automated complex testing and deployment tasks.
