Bio
Chris Hardy is a Senior Systems Integration Engineer and the Principal Engineer for Cross Process Solutions. A 1994 graduate of Georgia Tech, he’s been with Cross for over thirty years and has worked on software design, migration, configuration, commissioning & start-up of multiple platforms across various process applications. Chris’s favorite types of applications are the unusual and the experimental. Where some engineers like every detail planned and known before startup, Chris loves working on things which will require dynamic commissioning – experimenting and changing things on the fly until the system works well. Outside of work, Chris enjoys spending time with his family, hiking, computer games, and astronomy.
