About Dave Schultz
I solve complex technical problems that create real business value.Over the past 20+ years, I\'ve architected systems processing millions of transactions, led teams building products used by Fortune 500 companies, and developed solutions that generated tens of millions in revenue. Currently, I\'m building Task Assembly, an enterprise AI annotation platform that\'s helping companies accelerate their machine learning initiatives.My sweet spot is taking on \"impossible\" technical challenges—like the single-page application data extraction problem I solved using MTurk and AWS AppStream. I thrive on finding creative solutions that others might overlook, then building them into production-ready systems.What drives me is the intersection of cutting-edge technology and practical business impact. Whether I\'m designing serverless architectures on AWS, mentoring engineering teams, or working directly with clients to understand their challenges, I focus on delivering solutions that actually move the needle.I\'ve been fortunate to work across the full spectrum—from early-stage startups to Amazon\'s scale, from hands-on development to strategic leadership. This breadth helps me see opportunities others miss and build bridges between technical possibilities and business needs.Always happy to connect with fellow engineers, entrepreneurs, and anyone working on interesting technical challenges.
