Staff Software Engineer
DeveloperRemoteRole details to come.
Matt has spent more than twenty years building software, both as a developer and as a leader growing the teams behind it, at startups and large enterprises alike. Along the way he has worked across many business domains, from supply chain and payments to gaming and developer platforms, and found that what he enjoys most is seeing software make a real difference for the people who use it, and mentoring, teaching, and helping development teams grow.

Large remote, international teams. Roadmaps built collaboratively with product, and team members grown, onboarded, mentored, and retained.
Wide experience across supply chain and fulfillment, developer tooling and internal platforms, gaming and casino, e-commerce, mortgage, payments, personal finance, and IT.
Tools, frameworks, and libraries that let developers and internal users focus on what matters, efficiently drive results, and follow best practices, from warehouse and fulfillment apps to CI/CD platforms and shared frameworks.
