My name is Steven Thomas Snyder.
I have a B.S. in Cybernetics (Computer Systems concentration) from UCLA (University of California – Los Angeles).
My work experience includes: Cyber-physical systems, software development, autonomous vehicles, precision agriculture, molecular biology, medical diagnostics, mixed signal hardware design, electro-optics, image processing, embedded systems architecture, augmented reality, mold design and mold-making, 3D printing, resin casting, graphics editing & design, Linux, IT infrastructure, mechanical engineering & design, technical writing, experiment design, and regulatory compliance.
From my personal projects I have experience in automotive engine management, repair & diagnostics, suspension dampers, fasteners, woodworking, radio control, computer networking and more.
My broad educational background includes computational and systems biology (the application of numerical methods to the study of biological processes), statistics, data mining, algorithm design, molecular and cell biology, organic chemistry, computer science, and software engineering.
My hobbies include motorsports, freediving and spearfishing, photography, woodworking, hiking, camping, off-road travel and exploration, archery, music and recording… just to name a few.
