Top SchoolChristopher Manahan is a software engineer with nine years of experience building secure, production-grade web applications and infrastructure across startups and consultancies.

He’s worked across the stack—Kotlin/Spring, .NET Core, TypeScript/React, GraphQL—and helped modernize legacy systems with OAuth2, feature flagging, and robust CI/CD on AWS using Terraform. Christopher blends hands-on engineering with mentoring and teaching, having guided client teams through agile adoption and idiomatic code practices.
