Top SchoolJoe Morgan is a Staff Engineer with 13 years of experience building and architecting JavaScript-first systems, currently driving architecture at Matterport from Lawrence, Kansas. He authors widely read technical content—including a Pragmatic Programmers book and a React series with over two million views—and speaks internationally on microfrontends, code craft, and JS principles. Joe has led cross-functional teams to deliver large rewrites, introduce microfrontend architectures, and slash build and IE11 performance bottlenecks, while mentoring growing UI teams. He contributes to open-source projects related to single-spa and shared dependency hosting, and has hands-on experience across full-stack and tooling improvements that cut infrastructure costs and speed deployments. Unusually for a senior engineer, his academic background in philosophy and library science informs a disciplined, user-focused approach to documentation, discoverability, and developer experience.
