Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolBrian Sharon is a versatile software engineer with over 15 years of application development experience and a front-end focus that comfortably spans backend, big data, native mobile, and game-console platforms. He has driven product and team growth at Stripe—scaling Radar from a small team to 18 engineers and growing monthly revenues tenfold—while also building customer-facing libraries like Stripe.js and no-code payment flows. Brian ships polished user experiences (React/React Native) and has deep systems chops from maintaining Elasticsearch clusters to writing Spark jobs and cross-platform C++ for high-performance apps. He’s founded and advised product-focused engineering efforts through Main Street Labs and built a production React Native app for backcountry travelers that’s live in app stores. Known as an effective communicator and team builder, he pairs technical breadth with a physics-trained analytical mindset from Carnegie Mellon. A pragmatic tinkerer, he’s comfortable moving between low-level performance work and delightful front-end interactions.
