Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJack Skrable is a founding engineer and full-stack software developer with a decade of hands-on experience building scalable, production-grade systems for public benefits and higher-education platforms. Based in Philadelphia, he has designed and scaled payment and identity services that handled hundreds of millions in payments and supported six-figure user bases, combining Typescript, React, Next.js, Nest.js, gRPC, Kubernetes, and Cloud Run. He’s built extensible access-control systems (Zanzibar-style ReBAC with SpiceDB), migrated complex SaaS infrastructures between cloud providers, and integrated machine learning classifiers into document-processing pipelines to automate case work. Comfortable across product, infrastructure, and integrations, Jack also has deep experience in canonical data modeling and microservice-driven integrations from his time at Boston University. That blend of startup founding experience and institutional integration work gives him a rare ability to translate messy, legacy requirements into auditable, scalable services.
