Polar Bear Early-Warning System
Founder · hardware + software
Radar that watches for polar bears and warns Arctic communities in real time, straight to their phones. The company didn't make it; the engineering did.
Hi, I'm Gabe
I'm a self-taught software engineer with a formal degree from BYU Provo in Electrical Engineering (graduated 2021; GPA 3.87). My degree is load-bearing, which means I cover the stack in the literal sense. I've designed PCBs and radar integrations, and I've spent years sweating over every last pixel of production UIs and everything in between. I taught myself back before AI could even autocomplete a for-loop!
For the last 4+ years, I've been the lead developer on a digital therapeutics platform, where I designed and built a no-code app editor. Clinicians drag and drop React components; apps are stored as JSON and rendered live; and the whole thing ships to web, iOS, and Android from a single codebase.
I like software that regular people can actually use. I believe an interface can be serious without being boring (i.e., look closely at this entire website!).
- Lead engineer, 6+ years building
- Taught radar to spot polar bears
- Apps live on both app stores
- Built an actual arcade
- Once shipped software to a donkey sanctuary
Work
Square2 Systems
Lead Software Developer Dec 2021 – nowLead (and longest-serving) engineer on a digital therapeutics platform that lets clinicians build app-based treatment programs for their patients. I own the UI architecture end to end: the drag-and-drop editor, the shared component library (React + StencilJS), and the patient apps. One React + Capacitor codebase, rendered to web, iOS, and Android.
HelpPays
Lead UI Developer 2022 – 2023Led UI for a peer-to-peer lending platform: borrower and lender experiences, account dashboards, lending workflows, and payment API integrations. Money UIs have zero tolerance for ambiguity; it sharpened mine to match.
Freelance
Full-Stack Developer 2020 – 2022Scoped, built, and shipped client web apps end to end, including an operations platform for an animal sanctuary (intake records, medication schedules, daily care). The users were human. The stakeholders were donkeys.
Things I've built on purpose
Logistiikka
Founder · React, TypeScript, Firebase
Field operations software for Sage 100 Contractor crews: scheduling, dispatch, time tracking, equipment, and inventory that syncs straight into accounting. I built the web admin console and backend, and it's in production with real users.
An Arcade
Builder · wood, wires, software
Yes, a real one. Buttons, joystick, glowing marquee. Best deploy target I've ever shipped to.
Sanctuary Ops
Client work · web app
A ledger for a donkey sanctuary: intakes, medication schedules, care tracking. Quietly one of the most useful things I've made.
Food Review Social App
Side project · social
A social platform for reviewing food with friends, because star ratings from strangers are a lie.
The No-Code Editor
Day job · my favorite problem
Drag-and-drop components, JSON-defined apps, live preview, undo/redo, publishing, and an AI agent that assembles apps from prompts. Building the tool that builds the apps.
