Chris Scott is a Senior Software Engineer with 11 years of experience building pragmatic, maintainable web applications across startups and larger teams. Based in San Ramon, he brings disciplined design, collaborative communication, and a knack for knowing when to ship the perfect solution versus the on-time solution. Hands-on across Ruby, Go, Postgres, AWS and *nix toolchains, he has a history of rescuing fragile projects—rewriting error-prone systems at Airbnb and cutting hosting costs and technical debt for freelance clients. He pairs feature delivery with sustainable test suites and pragmatic architecture, and has led both development and product-facing activities from user interviews to launching Shopify/Etsy integrations. Equally comfortable in code and process, he champions durable, team-friendly engineering practices that reduce firefighting over time.
