Summary
Allen Taylor is a Senior Software Engineer and cloud-native architect with 11 years of professional experience building high-throughput, secure SaaS platforms—particularly in healthcare—using Ruby on Rails, AWS, and modern CI/CD practices. He has led migrations from monoliths to AWS microservices, designed PHI-scrubbing proxy services, and integrated EHR systems via FHIR/REST with careful auditing and error handling. Comfortable across the stack, he’s driven front-end modernizations (React → Hotwire/Stimulus) and built data pipelines (Python → Dagster → Snowflake) powering analytics. He regularly leverages AI-assisted tooling to accelerate refactors, tests, and code reviews, and has a history of shipping compliant systems for clients ranging from federal agencies to major libraries. Based in New Bern, NC, he pairs deep systems-level rigor with a pragmatic product focus, often surfacing simple automation that reduces operational risk.
