Colin Curtis is a Senior Software Engineer at Atlassian with five years of experience building backend and full-stack systems, currently based in Austin, Texas. A UCLA Mathematics of Computation graduate, he blends strong theoretical foundations with practical engineering—shipping scalable services, migrating databases to RDS, and containerizing ML workloads on Kubernetes. At Atlassian he progressed rapidly from intern to senior levels, demonstrating both delivery velocity and growing ownership of platform work. He co-led DataRes at UCLA and founded Bruin Quants, where he designed curricula and trading strategies that produced notable backtest results, reflecting a knack for applied quantitative thinking. Comfortable across React, Flask, cloud infra, and performance profiling, he focuses on bridging research prototypes to production-grade systems. Colleagues describe him as a curious engineer who pairs mathematical rigor with hands-on implementation to solve performance and scalability challenges.
