ElijahWoelbing
There are a lot of outdoors enthusiasts at KPS3, but not many can say they worked in national parks (yep, plural). Determined to be close to all the climbing and hiking routes his heart desired, Elijah Woelbing spent most of his early career working at awesome locations, including Glacier National Park, Yosemite National Park, Steamboat Springs, and Moab.
His recreational activities are certainly extensions of his curiosity. Climbing itself is really one big puzzle. Elijah has always enjoyed building things and problem-solving—but tools and supplies can cost a pretty penny. Programming serves as a way for him to create with limited resources. Self-taught, he started out building websites and was soon ready to break into the industry.
It was an easy decision when Elijah applied to be one of KPS3’s frontend developers in 2021. His work ethic, drive to learn new skills, and willingness to lend a hand continually leads the way to success. (Did you catch the climbing reference?) In 2025, he was promoted to full stack developer.
In addition to his promotion, some of his proudest accomplishments are:
- Building a DMG Gameboy emulator in Rust
- Supporting a good cause by championing the frontend of Nevada Humane Society’s new website
- Climbing the “Positive Vibrations” route on The Incredible Hulk in the summer of 2021
Elijah feels most like himself when he’s—yup, you guessed it—climbing with his two closest friends. (These are the same people he said he’d team up with during a zombie apocalypse. One is smart enough to probably figure out a cure, and the other is a good enough climber to get them to the top of a famous route… There are no zombies on El Cap.)
