Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJames Allen is a Senior Software Engineer based in San Antonio with a strong track record building full-stack solutions for healthcare research and enterprise systems. Over seven years he has delivered Java- and TypeScript-driven applications, moving from backend-focused roles using Spring Boot, Kafka, and containerized platforms to full-stack work with React, Next.js, and SQL Server. At Texas Biomedical Research Institute he progressed from Software Engineer to Senior Software Engineer, blending research domain needs with pragmatic, production-grade tooling. His background includes high-throughput backend integrations at USAA and legacy-to-modern migrations in .NET/PHP environments, giving him a knack for stabilizing complex systems across stacks. James pairs hands-on coding with CI/CD, observability, and container orchestration experience, and often bridges research data workflows with scalable engineering practices. Quietly, he brings an academic-rooted rigor from UT San Antonio that informs his approach to maintainable, auditable software in regulated contexts.
