Hi, I'm Jacob Fahnestock 👋

I'm a software engineer based out of Boston, MA. I build web applications and tools that help people.

I'm working on

Browse Tools

I created two web based browse tools for the NASA ITS_LIVE Project to help researchers and non-technical users explore their global cloud-based ice velocity dataset.

They loved the tools, embedding one in their homepage and hosting the other. I published a paper about it.

Startups

Building Quanta a B2B hedging platform to help businesses manage commodity price risk.

Dev Tools

Building a CLI tool to generate static sites from markdown files. It's called Megalopa.

Built in Rust so it's Blazingly Fastâ„¢. Started as an exploration of networking, TCP, and HTTP.
