Summary

Senior🎓
Top SchoolIain Schmitt is a Senior Software Engineer based in Minneapolis with six years of experience building reliable, production-grade systems in both SRE and software engineering roles. Trained as an honors chemical engineer at the University of Minnesota, he brings a data-driven, experimental mindset to infrastructure and application problems—having started his career running Monte Carlo simulations and writing Python analysis tools for research. At RELEX he automated migrations, improved observability with Fluent Bit/Prometheus/Grafana, and authored Java/Python programs to manage distributed application state, then continued advancing platform reliability at SPS Commerce. He pairs hands-on incident response and CI/CD automation (Ansible) with customer-facing troubleshooting and SLO-focused monitoring, making him comfortable across the stack from middleware to deployment pipelines. Notably, his background in process engineering and pilot-scale troubleshooting gives him an unusual aptitude for operationalizing complex systems and communicating trade-offs to nontechnical stakeholders.
