Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolBrian Morrison is a senior software engineer and developer educator with a decade of experience building backend systems and developer-facing content, currently shaping the Homerun Presales platform from Chicago. A serverless enthusiast and AWS/Go practitioner, he blends hands-on engineering with clear technical teaching honed at Clerk and PlanetScale, focusing on authentication and developer experience. His background spans hands-on infrastructure and integration work—from architecting WMS APIs and .NET integrations to leading backend teams—giving him a practical edge in shipping reliable, production-grade services. Brian’s career began in ops and small-business IT, which informs his pragmatic approach to automation and customer-driven solutions. He’s as comfortable authoring developer education as he is designing scalable services, often translating complex auth and serverless patterns into usable guidance for engineers.
