Senior🎓
Top SchoolAdam Pflug is a senior software development engineer with 14+ years building scalable web and native applications for brands like Meta, Amazon, Microsoft, and the Pokémon Company International. He blends hands-on full‑stack engineering—React/Node, .NET/Java, API-first CMSs and cloud platforms across AWS and Azure—with solutions architecture, UX, and accessibility expertise. He’s led and grown engineering teams, migrated legacy CMS landscapes to modern, API-driven stacks, and improved hosting and edge strategies to boost scalability and observability. At Meta he maintained a CMS serving billions of requests daily and drove modernization and testing improvements; his open-source contributions include backend work on a well-known Sequelize/Express REST utility. Comfortable shifting between product-facing UX decisions and deep technical details like caching, CI, and cloud functions, he often surfaces practical, measurable process improvements. Based in Maple Valley, WA, he pairs a B.S. in Informatics from the University of Washington with a knack for translating complex requirements into pragmatic, production-ready systems.
