Jaxen Dutta is an MSc student in Digital Transformation & Innovation at the University of Ottawa, which is a surprisingly cool-sounding degree for someone who spends most of his time making computers talk to each other and then writing about it.
His resume reads like someone who couldn't pick a lane: he's been a technical writer, a software developer, a QA engineer, an HCI researcher, and a government systems engineer... sometimes within the same calendar year. The common thread, if you squint, is a deep obsession with how technology and humans interact, and a suspicion that both could be doing a better job.
Past adventures include documenting healthcare APIs at a little company called Google, saving a translation costs by automating workflows nobody wanted to manually maintain, and optimizing an entire regional EV charging network using math so spicy it required its own specialized solver.
Jaxen holds an Honours BCS from the University of Waterloo with a Software Engineering specialization, two math minors, and an inability to leave a poorly designed interface without an opinion about it.
