Jesse Johnson
Summary
👤
SeniorJesse Johnson is a senior software developer in Portland, Oregon with 15 years of experience building web applications, server infrastructure, data pipelines, and analytical tooling. Currently at Shopify, he brings deep full-stack expertise from a long stint as a software and systems architect where he built multiple Ruby on Rails apps and managed dozens of Linux and virtualized servers across Xen, KVM, and AWS. Comfortable across languages (C, C++, Java, Ruby, JavaScript, Python, R, Scala, PHP) and databases (Postgres, MySQL, MariaDB, MS SQL), he ties engineering work to practical data visualization and analysis. Known as a designer, teacher, and problem solver who “sees around corners,” he combines hands-on systems administration with product-focused engineering. An unusual blend of software skill and formal study in psychology and functional nutrition suggests he brings human-centered thinking to technical decisions.
