Eric Butera is an independent software consultant with 11 years of experience building data-driven SaaS products and scalable platform systems. He excels at end-to-end engineering—bridging high-throughput backend data pipelines (Kafka, gRPC, Pub/Sub, Spanner) with polished user experiences and robust SDLC/CI-CD practices. His work includes re-architecting aerospace telemetry ingestion, scaling data ingestion 100x at Censys, and modernizing legacy government systems into API-driven SPAs, demonstrating both domain breadth and operational rigor. A pragmatic lifelong learner and team player, he pairs rapid prototyping to validate product and AI initiatives with disciplined engineering stewardship that balances speed and maintainability. Based in Traverse City, MI, he brings hands-on delivery experience across security-conscious, enterprise, and public-sector contexts—and a knack for turning complex integration challenges into auditable, production-ready systems.
