Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolDan Russell is a seasoned software architect with over two decades of experience designing scalable, reliable systems across aerospace, healthcare, finance, and e-commerce. He blends hands-on engineering and cloud architecture—spanning AWS and Azure serverless patterns, VPC design, and migration strategies—with a track record of cost- and performance-driven solutions like dramatic autoscaling improvements and large-scale data pipelines. As a co-founder of Escalante Cloud and current team member at Beta Technologies, he pairs startup agility with enterprise-grade delivery, frequently translating complex technical trade-offs into clear recommendations for non-technical stakeholders. His background includes building multi-tenant web platforms, analytics and ad-tech systems, and compliance-focused integrations (e.g., Twilio recording workflows) that emphasize operational maintainability. Based in Port Townsend, WA, he is as comfortable prototyping customer-facing demos as he is formalizing repeatable infrastructure patterns for long-term reliability.
