Summary
Jeffery Swanson is a senior software engineer in Denver with eight years of experience building data-driven backend systems and analytics platforms. A West Point graduate and U.S. Army veteran with Top-Secret clearance, he combines disciplined systems thinking with hands-on expertise in Python, AWS, Airflow, and PyTorch for ML workloads. At McKesson he accelerated analytics queries (some up to 300x) by designing ingestion pipelines using Kafka, Athena, and Glue, and championed test-driven practices that improved team velocity. He’s built scalable REST APIs and ingestion systems at DataRobot and has prototyped blockchain and high-performance automation earlier in his career, reflecting a taste for pragmatic experimentation. Continuously self-teaching, he’s refreshed algorithm design via Stanford Online and completed Udacity’s deep learning capstone using PyTorch, signaling an ongoing focus on ML and efficient engineering. Colleagues rely on him for mentorship, code standards, and translating complex operational requirements into robust, production-ready solutions.
