Senior🎓
Top SchoolJohn Finley is a practical software engineer and mechanical-trained technician with 11 years of hands-on experience building web and desktop tools that streamline manufacturing workflows. At Panther Industries he combines React, Express, Python, JavaScript and VBA to automate repetitive tasks, add features, and introduce unit testing—work that noticeably reduces technician workload and on-floor errors. His background as a field service technician gives him a rare end-to-end perspective: he develops software solutions informed by direct machine troubleshooting across dozens of clients and states. A Flatiron School full‑stack alum with a BS in Mechanical Engineering from Washington State, he contributes to open-source projects (notably implementing Ruby programs in the collaborative codinasion repo) and enjoys iterating on practical, production-ready tooling. Outside work he stays active with disc golf, skiing, and running, reflecting a mindset for continuous improvement and resilience under pressure.
