Hi!

Ai Girlfriends

2023 to present

For AI Horizons, I shipped an AI entertainment product. I trained production models; produced corpora; I shipped a real time voice conversation system; I shipped content filters, required by payment processors, which require a high degree of finesse; I advised the client on economical paths to product development; I interviewed and hired developers. I am the primary authority on all technical matters.

I would like to highlight the content filter, which makes monetization possible, but requires a high degree of finesse in order to balance requirements given from payment processors against typical user behavior and expectations.

"Joesph is a professional, communicates great and delivers on time and always exceeds expecatiations. He thinks beyond the tasks given and opens up new oppurtunites for us to expand on. We highly recommend working with him!"

Sierra Corp

2023 to present

For Sierra Corp, I support the development of a Linux-based industrial control system as a solver of esoteric, high-stakes technical problems with the use of Linux in embedded systems. I do this remotely by duplicating elements of the machine locally to reproduce and resolve behaviors. I also support their UI development with GTK.

I have been a embedded real-time software engineer for 40+ years but was having difficulty designing a complex GUI with GTK. Joe helped me do things in a few hours that would have taken me weeks to learn and do on my own.

I build and maintain the in-site chat for hostadvice.com, an affiliate marketing site for web hosting companies.

The chat is designed as a sales representative which talks to leads about their hosting needs. The agent does is not designed to answer questions, so much as to ask questions, until the user's intent is clear enough to send a good pitch and call to action.

"I had the pleasure of working with Joseph on my tool's development, and I am thoroughly impressed. Joseph's technical expertise, professionalism, and commitment to quality were exceptional. He understood the project requirements, wrote clean code, and ensured excellent communication throughout. I highly recommend Joseph as a highly skilled developer who consistently delivers outstanding results."

codementor

2022 to 2024

I helped professional developers and students as a mentor. Clients appear with extremely diverse technical challenges. I have a perfect five-star rating on Codementor, with over 100 reviews.

I've helped in writing an OS X audio driver. I oversaw development of a Gtk-based interface for an industrial control unit. With another client, we delivered a VR demo to investors and model customers. I solved problems involving networking, stereo video decoding and even VR-specific optical experiences.

Joe is a great developer and he explains when he codes. So that helps me getting to understand my problem and the bigger picture of a very complex project I was working on. Thank you Joe!!!

We worked on a unity VR project for Quest 2 over the course of two weeks. Joe was available throughout the time, working way past his midnight for many days. ... We were also time constrained as I wanted to have a working MVP for my prospective clients.

Knows right away where to begin and doesn't waste your time. ... Id really recommend this person for your needs. Had great experience.

Turbo Slicer

I wrote Turbo Slicer, a real-time geometry slicing kit intended for early-generation mobile devices, such as the iPhone 3GS.

Turbo Slicer had been featured repeatedly on the front page of the Unity Asset Store.

I've written a special variant for animated characters, Limb Hacker, which is now open source.

Insane Asset. Absolutely Incredible. A Must Have.

It just works. I've been using this for several vastly different projects and it has risen to the occasion every time.

Great product and support

The developers were incredibly responsive and friendly when we had some issues, and helped us to get it working perfectly. Turbo Slicer 2 has saved us a lot of time and energy. Highly recommended.

Moon in Unity

This hobby project from my past was to render a high-resolution Lunar map in Unity in real time, using the laser altimeter data products from the NASA Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO).

The orbiter took laser altimeter measurements while in a polar orbit (LOLA). I used their cylindrical projection dataset, but this isn’t renderable at the poles, so I write a simple tool which transformed the cylindrical projection to a _cubic_ projection (six quad-trees).

The final mesh weighed 14 GB, which at the time required streaming from disc.
