Background

About Tom Budny

Ready for a career lane change, I seek an entry level position in technology. I believe my strongest contributions will be at the intersection of emerging tech and the people who want to use it. Machine learning and data visualization are particular interests. Adept at conflict resolution. An emphasis on continuing personal and professional development at all levels of a team has been a recurring key to success in my experiences, as well as the truest predictor of my own happiness in a role. My recent coursework and dual degree in Computer Science and English have clarified for me the tug of war in all human things between tradition and innovation. Neither makes sense without the other and I enjoy finding the edges. Choosing where or when to push is harder. The solutions that succeed in the end are most often the ones that people will choose even when no one is looking. I am eager to apply what I've learned to different tasks: I love to build, but even more to polish and to teach. Proficiency in Python, SQL and C++. Familiarity with Java, JavaScript, Numpy, Ruby on Rails, Haskell. Detail-oriented writing and editing. Proven success managing creative teams. Years of experience fine tuning customer service in many environments.
