Background

About Christopher Lester

With over 25 years of experience in software engineering, development, and architecture, I have a passion for creating innovative and inclusive solutions that leverage the power of artificial intelligence and functional programming. I am the co-founder of EngrammicAI, a startup that aims to bring AI and its capabilities to those of us who think differently, and to make executive dysfunction functional through AI tools for the neurospicy. Prior to founding EngrammicAI, I held various roles as a software architect, developer, manager, and tester at leading companies such as Tableau, Microsoft, Expedia, and Sinclair Broadcast Group. I have shipped some amazing software, such as Fresh Paint, Microsoft Sway and Privileged Identity Management, and greatly contributed to the quality and performance of products like Windows and Office. I have also been recognized with awards for helping others succeed and for creating a digital art undo and redo patent. I enjoy working with diverse and talented teams, learning new technologies and languages, and solving complex and challenging problems. Some of my favorite languages are Clojure, Haskell, Python and Rust, and I prefer a functional approach when I am the implementer.
