Senior🎓
Top SchoolDuncan Mcisaac is a Senior Software Engineer in San Francisco with 11 years building reliable, trust-oriented systems across startups and mission-driven organizations. He blends backend, infrastructure, and frontend experience—Python, Scala, TypeScript, Kubernetes, Postgres—to ship production services at Kiva, Capital One, Astranis, and early-stage ventures where he often led migrations, scheduling systems, and financial tooling. Comfortable in both IC and leadership roles, he mentors engineers, codifies best practices, and creates psychological safety while running cross-functional working groups that resolve product and trust challenges. He also advises startups on AI strategy and has co-founded a collaboration tool for data teams, pairing technical depth with product instinct. Off-hours he publishes poetry in romance novels and hosts coffee chats to build connections, a small but telling habit that reflects his emphasis on human-centered engineering.
