Summary
Connor Denman is a Senior Software Engineer with 15 years of experience building cloud-native data systems and infrastructure for mission-driven startups across biotech, robotics, AI, healthcare, aviation, ecommerce, and fintech. He specializes in data engineering, AI ops, backend systems, and infrastructure-as-code, with deep hands-on experience on GCP (GKE, Cloud Run, BigQuery) and tools like Terraform, Python, Flask/FastAPI, and CI/CD pipelines. Connor has led and scaled engineering teams from seed stage through post-Series C, blending technical architecture, hiring, and developer experience improvements to accelerate delivery. He has repeatedly acted as the sole or lead engineer—owning frontend, backend, and DevOps—demonstrating an uncommon breadth from embedded/automation projects to large-scale data platforms. Based in Denver, he favors pragmatic, high-impact solutions that modernize engineering culture and observability for robotics and data-heavy products. Outside the obvious, he traces his craft back to building iOS apps in middle school and has shipped production systems that span both low-level hardware integration and cloud analytics.
