Ben Greenier is a Senior Software Engineer II with 11 years of experience building developer-focused tooling, backend platforms, and full-stack applications, currently working on video and infrastructure at Gather in Seattle. He has deep hands-on expertise in Rust, TypeScript, and Go, and a strong track record in real-time streaming, SDK development, and cloud infrastructure from roles at Smashcut, Rainway, and Microsoft. Ben has led engineering efforts across WebRTC-based streaming platforms, OpenTelemetry observability integrations, and monorepo best practices that materially improved developer productivity and build times. He combines systems-level thinking (C/C++ ABI work and bindgen tooling) with product-facing work (LLM-driven media segmentation and remote learning experiences). Known for stepping into leadership when needed—serving as Rainway’s CTO while continuing to code—he excels at turning complex distributed systems problems into practical developer tools. He’s quietly focused on making software development more powerful and accessible by improving the DX of runtimes, SDKs, and real-time platforms.
