Claude Banman is a Senior Software Engineer with 11 years of experience building and operating web-scale applications from Kelowna, BC. He has led small teams and driven migrations to cloud-native stacks—most recently designing Kubernetes deployments, Helm charts, and OpenResty/Nginx reverse-proxy solutions while decoupling monolithic Drupal frontends into Next.js. Skilled across PHP/Symfony, Node (NestJS/Express), and CI/CD with strong security focus, he has implemented field-level encryption, automated retention workflows, and comprehensive test coverage for mission-critical services. Now at Wizards of the Coast, he brings a pragmatic blend of hands-on engineering, developer mentorship, and systems thinking that reduces operational risk and accelerates delivery. A practical technologist who pairs legacy modernization with careful security and performance trade-offs, he’s comfortable owning both architecture and the day-to-day code that runs it.
