“One of Max's standout traits is his insatiable curiosity and breadth of knowledge. He is widely read and constantly exploring new technologies, methodologies, and approaches to problem-solving. He never shies away from roadblocks or complex problems—in fact, he thrives on tackling them head-on with a calm, methodical mindset. What truly sets Max apart from other engineers with whom I've worked is his unwavering commitment to the success of the team and the company. He is willing to go above and beyond even if it required him to step into roles beyond his comfort zone to support colleagues. Max’s openness to trying new things and his collaborative spirit make him a cornerstone of any team he’s part of. He is not just an exceptional engineer but also an inspiring team member whose dedication elevates everyone around him.”

High efficiency, non-neural network general purpose AI Algorithm
After several years of thought, I had the paid opportunity to dedicate several months into building and designing a multi-purpose algorithm which can be applied to Ai, data compression, and various other domains with the ability to speed up wide swaths of mathematical operations that currently rely on large matrix operations and specialty hardware such as GPUs, TPUs, or FPGAs. Algorithm is lightweight enough for microcontrollers or embedded devices, or massively parallelizeable on those…
After several years of thought, I had the paid opportunity to dedicate several months into building and designing a multi-purpose algorithm which can be applied to Ai, data compression, and various other domains with the ability to speed up wide swaths of mathematical operations that currently rely on large matrix operations and specialty hardware such as GPUs, TPUs, or FPGAs. Algorithm is lightweight enough for microcontrollers or embedded devices, or massively parallelizeable on those devices.
Algorithm is tunable for fuzziness, exactness, space/time compute, and ridiculously scalable in both is training and inference, even on ancient hardware where we obtained results greater than current SOTA on modern specialized chips.
Algorithm is currently patent-pending, and we're still continuously finding new use cases for its application.Other creators -

Implementing and Testing Open-source IDS

Plan appropriate implementation of open-source IDS. Set it up in willing client office as an inline device. Analyzed network traffic, inspecting packets for first two weeks to determine what was normal behavior and tune out false positives. Then discovered an APT attack that had been going on for an undetermined amount of time. Analyzed how the attacker was trying to feel out the network, then blocked it.
