Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolDaniel Sperry is a Senior Software Engineer with 13 years of hands-on experience building full-stack web and mobile APIs, primarily with Ruby on Rails and modern React frontends. He combines developer-first craftsmanship—refactoring legacy codebases, improving test coverage, and optimizing Postgres queries—with client-facing project management and Scrum leadership, having led small teams and coordinated scope with stakeholders. Comfortable across the stack, he’s delivered features from frontend UI work and webpack/npm configs to backend JSON APIs, single sign-on, media processing with ffmpeg/C libraries, and AWS deployments. He also mentors teammates, documents processes diligently, and builds developer tooling in his spare time (including a Rails generator gem in progress to speed REST API scaffolding and docs). Based in Raymond, Washington, Daniel is pragmatic about jumping between front- and back-end work and eager to adopt new languages or tools when they solve real problems.
