Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolGreg Benison is a senior software engineer based in Portland, Oregon, with 14 years of experience building and scaling backend systems and big data pipelines across enterprises like Meta and comScore. He combines a strong scientific background (PhD in chemistry) with hands-on polyglot engineering—Python, Java, TypeScript, Spark, Docker and AWS—to move prototypes to production at massive scale (billions of transactions/day and millions of users). Known for cross-functional leadership, Greg partners with statistics, research, DevOps and frontend teams to design robust data processing engines and lead full lifecycle delivery under tight SLAs. He has a track record of driving measurable product gains—doubling cable footprint and increasing sample sizes—while improving deployment reliability through automation and staging systems. A thoughtful backend specialist with experience in both research and production, he quickly learns new tools to match the right technology to the problem.
