Top SchoolJames Walsh is a Senior Software Engineer with 11 years of experience building full-stack JavaScript products, scalable Node.js backends, and design systems across startups and growth-stage companies. Based in Salt Lake City, he has consistently shipped new products and platform capabilities at organizations like Pluralsight, Podium, Vasion, and more recently Zamp.

Outside of work he’s into snowboarding, mountain biking, and learning to surf, which keep his problem-solving energy sharp.
