Adam Hultman

About

A bit about me.

A little context

I’m Adam Hultman, a software engineer based in Vancouver.

I take product problems from investigation through design, implementation, and release. I’m drawn to work where the interface and the underlying system both need careful thought.

I’m Kopperfield’s sole full-time engineer, responsible for the day-to-day health of engineering. That includes engineering operations, infrastructure, application reliability, and performance. I also build and ship web and mobile products, automate operational workflows, and own subscription and billing systems.

I bring engineering updates and priorities into company meetings, connecting the technical work to what the business needs.

Through Perspective Labs Inc., I’m developing Tenurel, a property intelligence product; Parallax Studio, an AI video application; and Earbud, a C++ audio plugin. They give me room to work on data analysis, creative workflows, and signal processing.

Previously, I built publishing tools and automation at Assembly Digital. I studied Software Engineering at the University of Victoria, specializing in cybersecurity and privacy.

Lately

I’ve been building a lot.

My work at Kopperfield spans product development, operations automation, and keeping the engineering systems running smoothly. I also build independent projects in property intelligence, AI video, and audio. GitHub captures one part of that work.

How my workflow changed

  1. Before fall 2022

    Writing code directly

    Working in the editor, writing the implementation and debugging it as I went.

  2. ~Fall 2022 · Assembly

    Autocomplete in VS Code

    AI became part of my day-to-day work through suggestions while I was writing code.

  3. ~Summer 2025 · Kopperfield

    Claude in the terminal

    I moved to working through changes with Claude in the CLI, with more of my attention on context, review, and verification.

What counts—and whose work is included?

A contribution is GitHub’s count of eligible commits, pull requests, reviews, and other activity. A single change can generate several contributions. The project pages show what the work involves.

I use the same ACHultman account for Assembly, Kopperfield, and personal projects. This chart combines the activity visible on that profile, including anonymous private contributions that GitHub shares. It doesn’t split totals by employer or expose private repository details.

The headline compares two consecutive 30-day periods and excludes today. Monthly charts exclude the current, unfinished month. Workflow dates are approximate. If a refresh fails, the last successful figures keep their original dates.

Previous 30-day period: Sep 3, 2026–Oct 2, 2026.

How GitHub counts contributions

How I approach
the work

Understand the task before designing the feature.

The awkward cases usually matter more than the ideal flow.

Make the important decisions visible.

Clear interfaces and understandable implementation make a product easier to review and change.

Stay involved after release.

Testing, feedback, and follow-up work are part of the job.

Tools I use

Web
TypeScript, React, Next.js
Backend
Python, Django, GraphQL, PostgreSQL
Mobile
React Native
Audio
C++, JUCE, digital signal processing
Also
AWS, automated testing, applied AI workflows

Reading

Books I recommend and useful links I’ve saved on software, design, and building products.

Away from the keyboard

Outside work, I run, travel, go to stand-up shows, and lose time to astrophysics rabbit holes.
