Summary
👤
SeniorEvan Hopkins is a software engineer with 12 years of experience building production web applications and trading systems, currently at Adaptive Security in Hoboken, NJ. He blends backend Python expertise with TypeScript and React front-end skills, having shipped high-impact features from paywalls and recommendation engines at Condé Nast to options trading signals at SIG. His background spans startups and top-tier firms (Bridgewater, IBM, Attentive), where he routinely moved projects from prototype to production and improved revenue and performance metrics. Evan has a quantitative bent—formal trading work and a "Quantitative Developer" GitHub persona—yet remains hands-on across the full stack and infrastructure. Notably, he has delivered both UX-facing product improvements (e.g., revenue-boosting gallery and affiliate integrations) and low-latency systems for finance, demonstrating an uncommon mix of product sensitivity and algorithmic rigor. He holds a B.S. in Computer Science from Marist University and a track record of integrating disparate systems to drive measurable business outcomes.
