Summary
Jared Ririe is a Staff Software Engineer with a decade of experience building high-performance backend and distributed systems at Qualtrics, where he progressed from entry-level engineer to staff and helped scale teams and services that handle millions of requests daily. He specializes in writing performant, hardware-aware code and has architected systems such as reverse-proxy caches, S3-fronting caches with global versioning, and production-grade API gateways. Jared combines deep systems instincts (OS- and distributed-systems-focused) with practical backend web engineering, and he’s also explored parallel processing and computer vision in research and intern roles. Colleagues praise his ability to learn quickly, mentor others, and deliver reliable, well-tested solutions; he documents his technical interests and work on his blog Backendology. Based in Lehi, Utah, he brings a pragmatic engineering style shaped by experience automating ASIC design flows at Intel and teaching embedded programming at BYU.
