Brian Pak

Software Engineer

I build cool stuff for enterprise FinTech and Music Technology.

About

I'm a recent graduate from Georgia Tech. I'm currently working as a full-stack software engineer at Ridgeline, building cloud-native solutions for portfolio accountants and asset managers. Before that, I worked at Georgia Tech's Center for Music Technology, building AI-centric music applications that give users all the freedoms to create and share music with no professional training needed!

I live in Reno, Nevada 🐎, where I often spend my days deadlifting, playing pickleball with friends, and taking occasional road trips up the Sierra Nevada to soak in the beauty of Lake Tahoe.
