Michael Kowalchik – Engineer, Entrepreneur and Creative Hacker
I’m an engineer, entrepreneur, and creative hacker. I love technology and using technology as a way to express creativity. I love the process of building great things with great people. I live in Boston with my amazing girlfriend Juliette and our dog Ajax. I love this city.
Currently, I’m working on starting a new collaborative startup workspace, TenZeroLab with the goal of creating more startups in the Boston area. I’m also working on a number of other projects.
Before starting TenZeroLab, I was co-founder and Chief Technology Officer of Grazr Corporation, a web technology company based on web feeds and data analysis. For three and a half years I led the engineering team and acted as primary software developer for Grazr’s various products. These products included Grazr.com, VibeMetrix, and AlertRank. In June of 2009 I decided to leave Grazr corporation and venture out again on my own. Grazr has $1.5M in funding and continues to operate with a focus on the AlertRank product.
Prior to co-founding Grazr corp, I worked for seven years in in the advanced research and development labs of Hopkinton, MA based EMC Corporation and before their acquisition by EMC, Data General Corporation. I worked with distributed computing and storage architectures, parallel processing, hardware, software and systems design and analysis. While at EMC, I was awarded patents on large-scale, high-performance, storage architectures.
