Douglas Parsons is a software engineer with 11 years of experience, currently building developer-focused infrastructure at Vercel after leading engineering at Shamaazi. His background spans data and big‑data work (Python, Spark, Riak) for public-sector clients at Leidos and The Data Shed, plus hands-on product and mobile development from early internships. He combines backend data engineering chops with modern web/platform experience, making him adept at bridging data pipelines and developer tooling. Based in Penistone, UK, he prefers pragmatic, production-ready solutions and has moved between roles that required rapid delivery and operational responsibility. A detail that stands out: he’s worked across both defense/transport public-sector contracts and cloud-native web platforms, giving him a rare mix of highly regulated and fast-moving product experience.
