Hey, I’m Chris Rauch — a U.S. Naval Officer turned Software Engineer passionate about building robust, scalable solutions that solve real-world problems.

I graduated from Cal Poly Pomona in 2019 with a B.S. in Computer Science, building my foundation in software engineering and design. Shortly after, I commissioned as a U.S. Naval Officer and spent the next four years leading high performing teams and managing complex operations in fast paced, high stakes environments. From managing multi billion dollar overhead strategic assets to overseeing Department of Defense security programs while forward deployed, I bring leadership, risk management, and mission critical decision making experience to every project.

Today, I leverage both my technical expertise and leadership experience to build full stack applications, automate workflows, and design systems that are not only functional, but maintainable and scalable. My work spans backend services, cloud infrastructure, hardware integration, and automation — with an eye always on simplicity, performance, and real world impact.

If you're looking for a versatile engineer who can operate under pressure, adapt quickly, and deliver high quality solutions — let’s build something together.
