About Zachary

Software Engineer at 1stMile LLC. Currently building .Net ecommerce applications. Working with a small team to maintain legacy applications and build new solutions to reach new customers in the automotive industry. Beginning my career at 1st 1stMile has led to incredible opportunites in learning full scale deployment and working on features from idea to beyond deployment.

Over the past 2 years, I have graduated from Seattle University with a Bachelors of Science in Computer Science. During that time I also worked at Kenworth Trucking building and deploying a machine learning application to enhance engineering response time. I also began my post University career as a Software Engineer 1 at 1stMile, where I hope to refine my skills and gain invaluable experience to launch my career to the next step.

I also enjoy working with Object Oriented Programming languages, specifically C# and C++. Currently learning Unreal Engine to begin exploring game development and refine my OOP skills. I have a background in Refactoring, Machine Learning, full stack deployment, and robotics.

Outside of coding and work I enjoy exploring Seattle and finding a new favorite Coffee Shop. I am also an avid soccer fan (Go Sounders!⚽) and baseball fan (Go Mariners!⚾) I also love going to concerts and just taking in the local Seattle music scene.

Additionally outside of work, I mentor FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC) Team 5588. Specifically I mentor the programming and scouting teams. Teaching high school students in Java while they build a robot to compete in FRC. As a alumni of FRC Team 2910, being able to give back to the program that inspired my passion for software engineering continutes to be the greatest gift.
