Brian Ledbetter is a Senior Software Engineer with 11 years of experience building and scaling mobile platforms and internal tooling, most recently architecting Getty Images’ Contributor ingestion pipeline that grew to 45K new applicants monthly and drove large retention and DAU gains. He combines native iOS/Android expertise (Swift, Kotlin) with cross-platform React Native and React-based CMS work, plus backend APIs, to deliver end-to-end product solutions and measurable business impact. At Getty he moved prototypes into production—like a reviewer tool handling 40K+ monthly applications—and also led unified storefront architectures for iOS that improved maintainability. Now based in Seattle and working at Compass, Brian pairs technical rigor with UX sensibility and contributes to civic open-source projects like the Council Data Project, reflecting a commitment to transparent governance beyond commercial software.
