Andrew Breksa
Staff Software Engineer at Prepared
California, United States
Summary
👤
SeniorAndrew Breksa is a Staff Software Engineer and systems architect with 12+ years building high-performance backend systems and internal developer platforms across fintech, healthtech, and security. He specializes in pragmatic platform design—shaping constraints, APIs, and developer experience so the path of least resistance is also the right one—and has led modernization and compliance-driven builds that scaled into strategic assets. His hands-on work spans multi-tenant APIs, high-throughput ingestion pipelines, observability, and secure auditable systems (including HIPAA and state-specific requirements). Known for spotting friction early, he balances long-term architecture with short-term velocity while mentoring teams and owning critical code paths. Based in California, he blends startup agility (co-founding a threat-intel engineering project) with production-hardened platform leadership at companies like Wag! and APWG.
