Senior🎓
Top SchoolCary Wolff is a founder and Lead Software Engineer with 11 years of experience building agentic systems and the resilient infrastructure that governs failures—retry logic, idempotency keys, and dead letter queues. He leads frontend and full-stack efforts at Guardian Life while founding SparkForge, Koap, and co-running Black Matter Labs to ship production-grade automation on k3s with robust CI/CD and orchestration. Comfortable across K8s, React, Node, and platform reliability patterns, he focuses on systems that make real decisions under real-world conditions and developer experience. Trained in Communication Design at MIAD, Cary brings a product-minded, user-centered perspective to engineering tradeoffs that most backend engineers overlook. Based in Menomonee Falls, WI, he combines startup grit with enterprise-scale discipline and enjoys debating why deployment pipelines lie.
