Top SchoolDean Missikowski is a seasoned software developer and technical leader with 20+ years of experience delivering production-grade information systems across finance, publishing and enterprise domains. Equally comfortable architecting RESTful services and hands-on coding, he has led cross-functional teams to turn failing projects into on-time, under-budget products and built scalable analytics and research platforms for institutions like CLSA and Samsung Securities. Since 2013 he has operated as a self-employed consultant, applying deep full-lifecycle expertise in Ruby on Rails, JavaScript, Linux and cloud (AWS) to web apps, integrations and performance-sensitive systems. Finance-savvy and process-oriented, he has designed advanced search and indexing, real-time PDF watermarking and API-driven modernizations that reduced dependency on costly legacy tooling. Internationally experienced and MBA-educated, he blends product thinking, technical mentorship and pragmatic architecture to deliver measurable business value. Frequently an early adopter of technologies, he brings a track record of turning prototypes into maintainable MVPs for both startups and large enterprises.
