Our Team
Christopher leads business development, applications engineering and the technical development aspects of the company.
He has over 18 years of electronics and microcontroller programming experience including robotics, industrial automation, commercial packaging, and data acquisition.
His strengths are found in schematic design, capture, and PCB development in Altium. Christopher oversees in-house PCB prototyping and small batch builds.
Chris’ masters thesis was directly tied to strain measurement using strain gauges/load cells and ultra low-noise amplification techniques.
This experience has been invaluable to the sister company, Tacuna Systems team in developing their strain amplifiers.
Chris is responsible for the board level design and layout as well as documentation.
Nathan’s main role within the company is to manage the administrative functions of the business.
In his career, he worked on a wide variety of projects ranging from desktop-based hydraulics and hydrology modeling software to embedded robotics projects geared towards space exploration.
Examples of his work can be found at the Urban Drainage and Flood Control website, and on SourceForge.
He focuses on the development of .NET applications, but is familiar with many different platforms.
He specializes in .NET application development. His portfolio includes projects for broadcast, data acquisition, defense, and robotic industries. He is a big believer in Lean Software Development ideologies.
Nathan is proficient in CAD using SolidWorks and other design tools. He has considerable experience in stress simulation modeling and failure analysis as well as complex mechanical assembly modeling.
Prior to DAQifi, Marc began his engineering career at NIST hacking RFID technology followed by several years working on large-scale enterprise systems for the DoD and various intelligence agencies while at Lockheed Martin as a senior software engineer. Marc currently also works on a popular consumer mapping web site.
Marc graduated from the Colorado School of Mines with a BS in Engineering Physics and a minor in Mathematics. In 2012, Marc graduated from the University of Denver with a Masters of Science in Computer Science.
He has worked with C/C++, Java Enterprise (EJB and Spring), JavaScript (Angular, Dojo, Leaflet, jQuery), Android, Scala and Python across numerous domains but has been especially active in mapping and real-time data streaming and processing.
