Mark MangieriFrom launch pads to launch days
The short version of a long career change.
I spent 35 years as an aerospace engineer — first at Ford Aerospace, then three decades at NASA — before software became the thing I wanted to build with my own hands. These days I design, code, and ship apps under MarkWare LLC — everything from restaurant- and TV-decision tools to retro arcade throwbacks and an original 3D shooter.
No studio, no publisher — just me, shipping things I'd want to use myself.
“Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.”
— Arthur C. Clarke
