Andrew Erickson is a Senior Cloud Developer based in Portland, Oregon with nine years building scalable, user-focused web and mobile systems on AWS and GCP. He combines hands-on backend work—serverless APIs, real-time WebSocket systems, and eventing pipelines—with front-end experience in React/React Native, Vue/Nuxt, and interaction design to improve user experiences. At companies from startups to consultancies he has led migrations to TypeScript, introduced TDD and CI/CD, and defined infrastructure as code using CDK, Terraform, and Serverless Framework. He volunteers on civic projects (Hack Oregon) and brings that product-minded, public-good perspective to production systems like recommendation engines and analytics pipelines. Notably comfortable bridging product, design, and data teams, he pairs practical cloud engineering with a background in East Asian studies and translation that informs clear technical communication.
