Senior🎓
Top SchoolClint Edwards is a Principal Software Developer with 17 years of professional experience and over 25 years working on enterprise SaaS and high-traffic web systems. Based in Fuquay-Varina, NC, he has led architecture and engineering at SAS since 2012 after scaling McClatchy Interactive’s content platforms—designing SOA/REST services, replacing a proprietary search with Solr to cut server count and costs dramatically, and building delivery engines handling tens of millions of daily page views. His background spans systems-level work (C, Informix, Solaris), web stacks (Perl, Ruby on Rails, mod_perl, MySQL), messaging and caching (ActiveMQ, Memcached), and distributed job scheduling for resilient content delivery. Clint combines hands-on implementation with cost-conscious architectural decisions that have yielded measurable operational savings. He’s equally comfortable in legacy environments and modern service-oriented architectures, and his career shows a steady progression from systems administration to principal-level design and leadership.
