John Cosentino is a pragmatic software engineer with 11 years of experience building resilient web applications and migrating legacy systems to modern stacks, currently contributing at American Express in New York. He pairs front-end expertise in React and Angular with back-end Java/Spring experience, having converted proprietary frameworks and Go services into robust Spring endpoints and implemented CI/CD pipelines with GitLab, Docker, and OpenShift. His work spans performance tuning—optimizing SQL for large exports—and real-time reactive UI patterns used by thousands of internal users. A City University of New York computer science graduate who also studied in Tokyo, he brings cross-cultural curiosity and a history of automating tedious workflows (e.g., bulk PDF generation and internal parsing tools) that improve operational efficiency.
