Michael Kolanjian
I am a Computer Science graduate with a passion for designing and optimizing software architectures. I specialize in building serverless web environments, low-level offline ad-hoc networking systems, and highly reactive native mobile architectures.
My engineering philosophy centers on simplicity, performance, and accessibility. Whether I am writing custom duty-cycled Bluetooth packet queueing systems, configuring AI-in-the-loop edge functions, or optimizing React components to minimize render waterfalls, I approach every codebase as a critical systems-level artifact that must operate flawlessly under high-stress constraints.
