Ben Patterson is a Senior Software Engineer with over a decade designing and delivering high-capacity, highly available web and API platforms, now applying that expertise at Atlassian after a multi-year impact at Domain. He blends a design-led background with deep hands-on skills in ECMAScript/TypeScript, React, Next.js, Apollo GraphQL and cloud infrastructure, and is also proficient in .NET and Python. Ben specializes in real-time, collaborative and streaming web APIs and has repeatedly driven tech-stack modernisation and legacy decommissioning without customer disruption. Known by peers as a “wizard” and “genius,” he pairs rigorous engineering with a creative approach to problem solving. Outside work he prototypes home automation hardware and software and maintains a practical tinkering streak—often swapping a keyboard for an engine or the outdoors.
