Summary
Jon Badgett is a Senior Software Architect with 12+ years of experience building cloud-first, pragmatic solutions using Azure, .NET, TypeScript, React, and automation tooling. He has led and scaled development organizations—establishing DevSecOps practices, inner-source models, and reusable design systems—while directly architecting APIs, SPAs, and PaaS deployments. Known for turning legacy SharePoint and on‑prem systems into modern, testable cloud services, he balances hands‑on coding with people leadership and developer enablement. At Chevron Phillips he grew teams quickly, drove secure development standards, and operationalized CI/CD and automated testing across many applications. Now at SmartDraw he continues to blend technical depth with a collaborative, positive management style that prioritizes quality and developer experience. Outside work he’s the sort of engineer who’s as likely to care about a tasty recipe as a neat architecture pattern.
