Chad Carlson

Chad Carlson manages the Developer Relations team at Platform.sh. Chad spent a large portion of his professional career in academia, where he worked primarily with Python in vision science laboratories: investigating how our visual systems detect motion, the relationship between eye movements and natural scene perception, and where reinforcement learning fits into a larger evolutionary context of neuroscience.

Today he can typically be found writing, cooking, or working on projects in Python, Node.js, Go, and whatever new language Platform.sh starts support for and wants another pair of eyes on.
