Colin Fleming is a senior software engineer in Washington, DC with 11 years of experience building data-driven backend systems and leading small delivery teams. He has driven mission-critical projects for political campaigns and civic organizations—architecting national early-vote and absentee processing pipelines for Biden 2020 and migrating party data ecosystems to BigQuery at the DNC. Comfortable in Rails, SQL and data engineering, he contributed backend work to an important Rails-based case management system supporting abortion funds, focusing on data models and API design. Colin pairs hands-on implementation with people management, having led a team of engineers to successfully deliver complex, time-sensitive products. He also brings institutional thinking from earlier roles in government and nonprofits, which helps him translate messy real-world requirements into auditable systems. Outside of work his GitHub bio hints at a relaxed, approachable personality—"a cat relaxing on the beach"—that belies his steady delivery under pressure.
