Summary
Anthony Honstain is a staff software engineer in Bellevue with 11 years of experience building and scaling backend systems for high-throughput fulfillment and order management. He specializes in modernizing legacy monoliths into resilient, async and event-driven architectures using Django, Java/Kotlin microservices, Postgres, Celery, and Kubernetes while optimizing observability and operational tooling. Anthony has repeatedly delivered mission-critical features under tight audit and production timelines—integrating MFA, structured logging, and automated retry pipelines for robotic picking and fulfillment workflows. He combines hands-on performance tuning (pod autoscaling, query/model optimizations) with product-focused automation that cut planning times from hours to minutes for FBA and multi-shipment scenarios. A former Army Ranger and combat veteran, he brings disciplined leadership to on-call design and cross-team culture change, improving reliability without expanding support headcount. Based in Seattle, he pairs pragmatic engineering with strong documentation and testing habits to make complex, quirky systems reliably maintainable.
