# Lucas Lofaro > Architecting and developing software systems at scale. Exploring, transforming, and analyzing data in all its forms. Location: Berkeley, California, United States Profile: https://flows.cv/lucaslofaro In a world overtaken by data, I am but a lowly software engineer armed with nothing more than an inquisitive mind and a magical logic box. Trained in the not-so-mystical arts of mathematical and physical modeling, I scour the earth in search of data to analyze and interpret. My mission is to develop autonomous software systems that leverage data science and machine learning to solve the world's most challenging problems. ## Work Experience ### Senior Software Engineer @ Drillbit (YC S24) Jan 2025 – Present ### Senior Software Engineer @ Pronto Jan 2024 – Jan 2025 ### Senior Software Engineer @ Discord Jan 2023 – Jan 2024 ### Senior Cloud Developer, Self-Driving @ Rivian Jan 2021 – Jan 2022 ### Director Of Software @ Axiom Cloud Jan 2020 – Jan 2021 ### Senior Software Engineer @ Axiom Exergy Jan 2020 – Jan 2020 | Richmond, California, United States ### Software Engineer @ Axiom Exergy Jan 2018 – Jan 2020 ### Full Stack Developer @ Sphere Jan 2018 – Jan 2018 | San Francisco Bay Area Developed database schema and queries to optimize data access for use in social event scheduling algorithms Improved unit tests by adding dependency injection to decouple database queries and controller functionality Wrote an automated recruiting tool that identifies application emails from an IMAP email server and responds to each applicant with pertinent details for their specific position. ### Python Programming Instructor @ iStart Valley Jan 2017 – Jan 2018 Taught groups of high school students to develop using Python from the ground up Lessons included programming fundamentals, OOP, Django, and SQLite Focused on best practices such as test driven development, logging, readability, and optimization ## Education ### Bachelor of Science - BS in Engineering Physics UC Berkeley College of Engineering ### Machine Learning Nanodegree in Machine Learning Udacity ## Contact & Social - LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/lucas-lofaro --- Source: https://flows.cv/lucaslofaro JSON Resume: https://flows.cv/lucaslofaro/resume.json Last updated: 2026-04-01
