// about

I build systems — in code and in the world.

Hi, I'm Bryan. Lead engineer on Paramount's Core Architecture Team (CAT) by day, builder-of-things by night. I've spent the last decade shipping at scale on iOS and tvOS, and the last few years getting serious about hardware — autonomous robotics, welding, 3D printing, embedded software — running Nedron Labs as a registered DOD vendor on the side.

I'm also a working search-and-rescue K9 handler on a county sheriff's SAR team — which is where K9 Sentinel came from. I started Nedron Labs because the things I built outside of work deserved a roof; I write here so the lessons compound.

What I'm passionate about

Search-and-Rescue K9 Handler

I'm a working SAR K9 handler on a county sheriff's search-and-rescue team. The dogs are why K9 Sentinel exists.

Always Building

If I'm not coding, I'm in the engineering lab — TIG welding, 3D printing, machining, custom PCBs, and the autonomous robotics work at Nedron Labs.

Outdoor Adventures

Hiking, biking, camping, dirt biking. Time in the dirt resets the part of my brain that writes code.

Technology & AI

Genuine excitement about where things are headed. AI, robotics, edge compute, the next wave of consumer and defense hardware.

Mentoring & Teaching

Workshops, code reviews, the long tail of helping junior engineers level up. It's where I find a lot of meaning.

Travel

New places, new contexts, new ways to look at the same problem. Travel makes me better at my job.
