Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolBarrett Sonntag is a seasoned software engineer based in Austin with over a decade of hands-on experience delivering front-end and cloud solutions across web and mobile platforms. He has led large UI modernizations—migrating legacy Backbone/Marionette apps to React and TypeScript—while building robust component libraries, Storybook-driven workflows, and automated CI/CD pipelines backed by Terraform and AWS. Comfortable across the stack, Barrett pairs practical UX-focused engineering (custom web components, responsive design, form validation) with infrastructure-savvy automation that cut build times in half. His background stretches from early Flash and rich-media systems to modern single-page apps and cross-platform mobile work, giving him a rare historical perspective on web evolution. After a recent sabbatical focused on family care and hands-on home design projects, he returns energized with refreshed skills and a proven track record of mentoring teams and improving developer productivity.
