Top SchoolBrendan Peters is a Senior Software Engineer based in the New York City area with nine years of experience building backend web systems and APIs. After starting his career as an electrical engineer and earning an M.S. in Electrical Engineering from Columbia, he transitioned to software where he has driven payments, subscription, and fraud-detection work at Vimeo and now contributes to product engineering at Descript. He has a strong foundation in computer science and applied mathematics, which he applies to refactors, automation of payouts, and remediation of complex production incidents (including recovering the majority of $1.2M in a past outage).
