United StatesWhat I'm looking for
Hello, my name is Tyler Clark. I am a software architect with over 28 years of experience in the web industry. Currently, I am the founder and CEO at Clarky AI (a really cool AI startup) and Clark Interactive (a really cool AI + web consultancy).
I began my journey in the late 90's and have since honed my skills to become a leading expert in web and mobile app development. I am particularly proud of my tenure at the New York Times working on high-traffic dynamic websites, Salesforce where I spent almost a decade working on cutting-edge projects, SurveyMonkey where I was one of three architects within the entire engineering organization.
Throughout my career, I've had the opportunity to work on thousands of websites and mobile apps, each one a testament to my dedication to creating high-quality, user-friendly solutions.
