Summary
Brandon Shearin is a software engineer with nine years of experience building cloud-native services and web applications from internship prototypes to production systems. Based in San Francisco, he has shipped microservices and containerized platforms using Go, Node.js, gRPC, Docker, and Kubernetes at IBM and later applied that expertise at startups like Trove and security-focused SpecterOps. He combines full-stack fluency—front-end Vue.js work and Postgres/Clojure APIs—to move projects from research and user testing through CI/CD and adoption. A project-driven learner, Brandon has a history of founding a web shop, leading hackathon teams, and translating stakeholder feedback into features that drove real user engagement. He pairs an engineering mindset with practical operations experience, having managed devops on IBM Cloud and delivered automation that halved manual testing effort at Fidelity.
