Aaron Stanton is an entrepreneurial full‑stack developer with 13+ years focused on Ruby on Rails and 16 years building web applications that boost customer acquisition and conversion. He runs Cathartic Bliss, where he’s the sole engineer on products from an AI‑assisted interview app to a library inventory system managing over half a million items, and has shipped HIPAA‑aware healthcare analytics and large public‑school portals. Comfortable across backend, frontend, and ops, his toolkit spans Rails 1–8, Postgres, Redis, Sidekiq, Elasticsearch, Flutter/Dart, LangChain/OpenAI integrations, and production Linux environments. A former senior engineer at Checkr and architect at multiple startups, he pairs rigorous analytical thinking (PhD‑level scientific training) with concise technical writing and public speaking skills. He’s equally at home designing microservices and APIs as he is optimizing conversion through data-driven experiments, reflecting a blend of hands‑on engineering and product-minded entrepreneurship.
