Isaiah Scheel is a Senior Software Engineer in Seattle with eight years of experience building high-performance and user-facing systems for scientific research and e-commerce. He moved from accelerating HPC simulations at PNNL—where his team cut multi-day runs to hours—into modernizing Alaska Airlines’ front end, reducing legacy page load time by 53% through a SvelteKit/TypeScript migration. Comfortable across the stack, he has led API decomposition into microservices, owned cross-organizational technical alignment, and received an Award of Excellence for leadership and delivery. A PLU graduate with dual minors in Physics and Math, he pairs strong algorithmic intuition with practical engineering trade-offs. Outside work he’s an avid hiker and former collegiate track captain, bringing team leadership and outdoors-honed resilience to complex projects.
