Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolGary Krug is a Software Engineer in Test with 11 years of experience building backend systems, data pipelines, and NLP tooling across startups and enterprise teams in Seattle. He combines strong Python and Java expertise with SQL-backed data work (Postgres, Redshift) and practical AWS experience to deliver reliable ETL, security testing, and backend services. Gary has applied computational linguistics skills to real products—designing grammars, lemmatizers, and multilingual normalization pipelines—bringing rare language-aware rigor to software engineering. Recently he implemented AI-driven UAT workflows and JSON-configured scenario testing for Project Kuiper, blending test automation with practical customer validation. Comfortable in mixed stacks (Spring, Tomcat, PHP, Docker, Airflow) and CI-driven environments, he’s equally at home sanitizing legacy systems or building new backend features for data science teams. Colleagues rely on him for careful root-cause analysis, clear documentation, and pragmatic solutions that bridge linguistic nuance and large-scale engineering.
