Edith Emmings is a Senior Software Engineer with seven years of experience delivering mission-driven web apps, APIs, data pipelines, and reporting dashboards across education, legal aid, health, and nonprofit sectors. She currently consults at Software for Good and has led multiple engineering teams of apprentice developers, translating complex client needs into resilient, SOC 2-aligned software. Her background spans full-stack work with Ruby on Rails, Python, Java/Spring, Kafka, JavaScript/React, and data tooling like Airflow and Meltano, plus hands-on experience building operational tools and analytics. Prior roles at Target and Virta Health reinforced her microservices and security-focused approach while mentoring junior engineers and advancing inclusive team practices. Edith’s early scientific research in chemistry and cancer biology, including co-authorship on publications, gives her a disciplined, data-driven problem-solving style not obvious from her engineering resume alone. Based in the Twin Cities, she combines product empathy with a knack for turning volunteer and civic-focused ideas into usable software.
