Zach Taylor

Creative engineer who designs scalable applications and develops tailored solutions that meet customer needs.

About Me

Passionate about building efficient solutions and learning new technologies

Software Engineer & Problem Solver

I'm Zach, a software engineer specializing in low-level systems and optimizations. With a degree from Oregon State University and hands-on experience at Rohde & Schwarz, I enjoy building efficient, reliable tools and working close to the hardware level.

Technical Expertise

I have experience across a broad range of languages including C++, Python, TypeScript, Go, and Assembly. I'm proficient with frameworks and tools like Node.js, Next.js, TensorFlow, Docker, Git, and Jenkins.. I'm comfortable working with Linux environments as well as developing both scalable applications and web applications.

Currently seeking new opportunities where I can grow as an engineer. If you're looking for a motivated developer with a strong willingness to learn and contribute, I'd love to connect!
