Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolDavid Larsen is a Senior Software Engineer based in Minneapolis with six years of professional development experience and over a decade in IT, who specializes in TypeScript/JavaScript, React, Node.js, and PostgreSQL. He has led end-to-end frontend work and architected UI component patterns that cut feature and maintenance time by up to 75%, and has driven platform upgrades that removed costly deprecated dependencies. Comfortable in cross-functional roles, he has built embedded React products, admin tooling, and REST APIs while mentoring engineers and managing small teams. David pairs a pragmatic focus on performance and reliability—demonstrated by 50% page load improvements and streamlined admin workflows—with a fast learning curve rooted in a prior career as an independent music professional. That musical background informs his collaborative, user-centric approach to product design and his knack for quickly mastering new tools and domains.
