Location: Orange, Connecticut, United States
Profile: https://flows.cv/mahirrana

Software engineer that loves creating algorithms and systems to solve modern-day problems. Recently, I have been working on creating algorithms to help drastically improve how we process data at RiskMatch. Before that, I worked for a few years as an entrepreneur; creating multiple iOS apps for my own startup as well as for others. 

I want to take software to new boundaries. I very much enjoy problem solving, learning new things, and being challenged by work. I am looking for an opportunity that will help me learn and grow, but more importantly, create an impact through my work!
