Summary
James Russo is a Lead Software Architect with a decade of experience modernizing legacy systems and driving architectural change for hospitality platforms. He combines hands-on .NET, REST, AMQP and cloud orchestration work with a knack for pragmatic process improvements—migrating monolithic source control, instituting CI/CD and introducing Docker-based developer environments. At Xenial he led the transition from Win32 to Angular front-ends, designed asynchronous service architectures, and guided the team through their first successful SOC1 audit. A hands-on mentor and technical advisor, he focuses on maintainability, performance, and measurable developer productivity gains. Based in the Atlanta area, he’s perpetually learning new skills and applies that curiosity to both code and culture.
