Summary
Daniel Robbins is a founding engineer with 14 years of experience building resilient full-stack and backend systems, currently tackling weather and electricity forecasting to combat climate change from San Francisco. He has deep hands-on expertise scaling SaaS products—cutting AWS costs, accelerating deploys, and maintaining high-uptime services—gained at startups (Folsom Labs/HelioScope) and at Blizzard where he shipped features for titles with massive concurrency. Comfortable across C++, Python, React/Redux, Flask, Celery and cloud infrastructure, he moves fluidly between low-level systems and user-facing product work. A pragmatic mentor and hiring contributor, he’s repeatedly driven process improvements and operational reliability in small, elite teams. Notably, he joined Aurora via acquisition and now leads engineering on forecasting products at Pravāh, where he continues to blend product impact with infrastructure rigor.
