Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolBen Mier is a Senior Lead Backend Engineer based in Seattle with 10 years of experience building scalable data pipelines, automation infrastructure, and production backend systems across startups and large enterprises. Trained in computer science, electrical engineering, applied physics, and mathematics (MS EE, BS Astrophysics & Math), he combines deep systems rigor from aerospace and RF engineering with hands-on backend software delivery at Microsoft, Scott’s Cheap Flights, and Lattice. He has led projects that processed petabytes of telemetry, cut regression detection time by over 99%, and automated workflows that saved hundreds of staff hours annually. Comfortable across C#, Node.js, cloud platforms and data-driven AI tooling, Ben excels at turning complex instrumentation and telemetry problems into reliable, automated services. An uncommon blend of lab-grade hardware experience and backend architecture lets him bridge physical systems and cloud-native software in ways most backend engineers don’t.
