I work as a computer programmer. I mostly specialize in low-level optimization for either embedded systems or HPC simulation / modeling.

We are a small shop of 5 guys we do mostly one offs very seldom do we do a run of more then 5 parts. Engineers send us a print and we make it. hold tolerances to .0001 to .0005 on lots of work. the most rewarding job I have ever had.

Working maintenance can make for an interesting day.
