Aidan Sawyer is a versatile software engineer with 13 years of experience building full-stack web applications and open-source web components, particularly for academic and library systems. He excels in cross-functional, agile teams that ship frequently and owns end-to-end product quality, having architected reusable web components and a new technical foundation for university libraries. His background bridges research-focused software, production microservices at JSTOR, and hands-on operational roles—most recently managing warehousing and operations at a craft distillery while completing Cornell brewing coursework. That blend of rigorous engineering, attention to traceability, and real-world production operations gives him uncommon insight into how software supports physical processes and communities.
