Summary
Christopher Smith is an on-site team leader and senior software engineer with 13 years of experience delivering full-stack web applications and standing up agile delivery teams across the Detroit area. He combines hands-on development in C#, TypeScript/JavaScript, Angular and Node with strong process discipline—introducing CI/CD, Docker, code review practices and branching policies to accelerate secure, repeatable delivery. Known for hiring and mentoring (screening hundreds of candidates), he builds teams that ship user-facing features and reusable internal services for high-security environments. His background spans startups to enterprise credit union and health projects, where he often translated complex integrations (SOAP, REST, vendor APIs) into production-ready services. Colleagues rely on him both as a technical contributor and a practical coach who balances fast delivery with long-term maintainability.
