Andy Barron is a lead software engineer based in Seattle with 12 years of full-stack experience building reliable, production-grade systems for companies like Google, Stripe, and NASA. He combines hands-on engineering across databases, backend microservices, and modern front-ends with leadership roles that shaped OKRs, developer tooling, and platform migrations. Notable wins include migrating internal infrastructure to Kubernetes, cutting internal build times by 10x, and architecting microservice platforms for freight and live-streaming products. Comfortable in TypeScript, Node, React, GraphQL and cloud-native tooling, he’s equally at home prototyping AR navigation for aircraft and shipping resilient backend services. Outside of work he’s a music and gaming enthusiast who brings that same creative energy to building “cool stuff” in his spare time.
