Emily Harms is a Senior Software Engineer in Durham, NC with 11 years of experience building data-driven web systems and pipelines at organizations including The New York Times and Google Creative Lab. She blends backend engineering and data engineering expertise—working with Python, Java, Ruby, Go, Kafka, Postgres and analytics platforms—to move projects from prototype to production. At Unified Social she built full-stack services and streaming integrations, and at The New York Times she now applies that systems mindset to large-scale content and data problems.
