Senior🎓
Top SchoolJohn-charles Sokolow is a Cloud Architect with 11 years of software engineering experience, focused on Node.js, Java, and Python and based in the Greater Chicago Area. He progressed from front-end roles and team lead responsibilities at Cars.com to senior engineering and cloud architecture work at StyleSeat, where he now leads migrations to AWS using Terraform. Comfortable as a polyglot developer, he pairs hands-on coding with architecture and stakeholder-facing planning, ensuring projects move from legacy platforms to scalable cloud deployments. Over the past year he has concentrated on large lead-acquisition system migrations, demonstrating pragmatic cloud modernization skills rather than theoretical designs. He values continual learning and balance between breadth and depth—choosing a focused tech stack while staying fluent across languages and disciplines. His background in computer security and forensic investigation adds an uncommon operational and security-minded perspective to his cloud work.
