Mike Burke

Comcast VIPER
Sr Software Engineer
Greater Denver Area

I was an open source maintainer on Ford's open source SmartDeviceLink project in Michigan before moving to Denver in 2015 to work on streaming video to Android devices. I love Kotlin, the new programming language supported by Android; it allows the same functionality of Java, but with much easier syntax, better error handling and allows expressiveness with brevity. I enjoy walking around downtown Denver, meeting new people and perpetuating the stereotype that people in Denver are awesome! Let's talk about social interactions, software data structures or software design, how to build an elite team of software engineers, the idea of infinity, the universe, emerging technology, music theory, rubik's cubes, Game of Thrones, Rush or even Pokemon!
