Top SchoolAaron Sharp is a software engineer with 13 years of experience building reliable, production-grade systems from the database layer to containerized services. Currently at ObservePoint, he develops Java/JavaScript/Scala applications, automates large-scale browser scraping for millions of sites, and drives zero-downtime deployments with custom CI pipelines while managing AWS infrastructure with Terraform. His background in bioinformatics and genomics gives him a rigorous experimental mindset—he emphasizes doing things right the first time or at least doing failures in a way that yields clear lessons. Previously he designed enterprise database schemas and maintained legacy systems at Farmers Mutual Hail, and early roles at BYU and NINDS blended wet-lab genomics work with heavy bioinformatics and tool-building. Based in Provo, Utah, Aaron pairs scientific discipline with pragmatic engineering to deliver auditable, scalable solutions.
