Senior🎓
Top SchoolDaryll Strauss is a veteran software engineer and founder with over three decades of experience architecting high-performance graphics and media-production systems for Hollywood and beyond. He built industry-first Linux-based solutions—bringing commodity workstations and hardware-accelerated 3D graphics to film post-production—and led teams that shipped mission-critical tools used on blockbuster films. As owner of Digital Ordnance and former VP of Advanced Software at Technicolor, he combines deep C++/OpenGL systems expertise with cloud, hybrid workflows, and secure SaaS platform design for petabyte-scale media. He’s founded multiple startups (Cloud Takes, Video Village) that translate feature-film tooling into collaborative cloud services, and continues researching AI and hybrid-cloud production architectures. Comfortable both on the command line and in the boardroom, he’s prized by clients for delivering technically rigorous products on time while speaking in operational, business, and creative terms. An early mover in replacing proprietary studio hardware with open systems, he still enjoys hands-on engineering alongside strategic leadership.
