Background

About Christopher Nyberg

A dynamic and results-focused engineer, who thrives on detailed quantitative analysis and shipping delightful products. Having discovered a true love of programming, I have passionately sought out new ways to deliver value to those around me quickly and decisively, whether as a researcher, individual contributor or team lead. I flourish in a fast paced environment and am comfortable switching from talking to management at a high level about tradeoffs to reviewing PRs or writing some code! My career thus far has been in highly entrepreneurial environments, granting me the opportunity to work on a number of different projects including: transitioning an internal ecosystem of applications from Node to Elixir (and increasing reliability a few nines in the process), design and write a domain specific internal language for data in Haskell, quickly ship applications and microservices used widely internally in Node, publish monte carlo simulations and other analytical tools as REST APIs in Python, and a whole lot of awesome other projects in Elm, Angular, Spark or whatever the job called for along the way. Most importantly, I am never complacent, constantly challenging myself to grow as a professional so that I leave everything I touch vastly improved to how I found it.Other interesting tasks along the way have included helping a firm create an engineering culture; help management understand the challenges and opportunities of software engineering; create and grow an engineering team founded on trust, transparency and passion; migrate from monoliths to microservices; help found and prove value in a devops function and just generally do my part to sure everyone comes in super excited and goes home proud of the work they did.
