Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJimmie Butler is a pragmatic software engineer with 12 years of experience building full-stack and backend systems for startups and large products, currently delivering React Native VR and mobile features at Meta. He’s comfortable across the stack—designing scalable Go microservices, real-time collaboration UIs, and DevOps automation with Terraform and Kubernetes—and has a track record of shipping production features like VR store sorting and LLM-powered legal chatbots. Jimmie consistently improves reliability and cost-efficiency (e.g., fixing a long-standing test bug that cut five-figure compute waste and boosting VR Store search test coverage 10x). As a former co-founder and lead engineer, he blends product intuition with architectural rigor, especially for low-latency and security-sensitive systems. Based in San Francisco, he stays hands-on with emerging AI and web tech and, when not coding, hunts for the city’s best curry.
