Technical depth with room for the whole application.
Howard Pearlmutter's practice connects software development, architecture, integration, research, business perspective, and human understanding.
That range is useful when the question moves between layers: a native component inside an enterprise application, a distributed failure across services, or a specialized model that another audience needs to inspect.
More than 200 engagements, primarily through companies he founded, have required different combinations of those capabilities.
Specific work across difficult boundaries.
For a multinational genetics-sector client, Howard worked across enterprise direction, content-management qualification, requirements, plugins, staff transfer, an operational pilot, and C/Java integration of a multilingual OCR engine. Read the case.
He resolved a recurring mission-critical distributed caching failure that had persisted for nine months, then contributed architectural direction and feasibility work. Read distributed-cache diagnosis.
For GM and Ford users, he created a commercial web-enabled animated virtual reality executive due diligence and signoff system for factory designs. He completed it in nineteen weeks and wrote 100% of its application code. Read the factory system.
Current work across native, enterprise, and media systems.
At Telos Alliance, Howard's AI-assisted prototypes and demonstrations included Apple Silicon CPU/GPU execution, MPSGraph, Java native integration, Netty, Vert.x, Quarkus, and Jakarta EE CDI.
The work connected enterprise software, high-performance computing, media, graphics, and simulation. John Schur recognized practical mastery across low-level implementation, languages, native/platform integration, middleware, and domain-specific workflows.

Long foundations in systems and representation.
Howard's experience includes parallel computing and atmospheric modeling for NASA Ames, computational-fluid-dynamics research at MIT's Laboratory for Computer Science, and a 700-page NASA study on human interaction with dynamic simulation.
Commercial work has included enterprise systems, graphics, interfaces, educational software, diagnostics, and environmental information applications. See the research foundations.
NASA, Apple, Disney, Xerox, HP, Kodak, CBS, Fujitsu, CSC, Capital One, Symantec, and the Financial Times are among his development and consulting clients.
Separately, organizations have paid him to present to professionals from IBM, AT&T, Sun Microsystems, Intel, BT, Nokia, NASA Ames, JPMorgan, Goldman Sachs, and Barclays across five continents.
Select the part of the range your system needs.
An architecture assessment, prototype, qualification exercise, or technical transfer can be a complete contribution.
Further implementation or advisory work can follow when useful. Begin with the boundary that makes the question difficult. The relevant expertise is the combination that helps your particular system work more intelligently.
