Brandon Egger

Software Engineer & CTO at SeatStock

I build accessible, high-performance web applications. Currently leading technical development at SeatStock, where we're transforming how students buy and sell event tickets.

About

I'm a software engineer based in Iowa City with a passion for building products that solve real problems. I hold a Master of Science in Computer Engineering from the University of Iowa, where I also completed my B.S. in Computer Science & Engineering with a minor in Economics.

My journey spans from neuroscience research labs to aerospace systems to founding a startup. I thrive at the intersection of complex technical challenges and user-focused design, whether that's building recommendation engines, IoT monitoring systems, or scalable web platforms.

When I'm not coding, you'll find me exploring new technologies, contributing to open source, or working on side projects that push my skills in new directions.
