Summary
Andrew Garfield is a senior backend engineer with a decade of experience building reliable, production-grade systems and a strong foundation in GIS and geospatial data. He has shipped serverless APIs, API gateways, and tooling to boost developer velocity at startups and large companies, and recently held senior backend roles at Dropbox and Arine. His background in utilities and government (Duke Energy, City of St. Petersburg, USGS) informs a pragmatic approach to migrating legacy systems, data quality, and spatial analysis at scale. Comfortable in large Go monorepos and AWS serverless environments, he also writes static analysis and pagination libraries that reduce friction in fast-moving teams. Known for turning messy geodata into auditable pipelines, he combines domain expertise with hands-on engineering to solve both infrastructure and data challenges.
