Jonathan Stewart is a Senior Software Engineer with 6+ years of recent experience (and a longer history of enterprise work) building resilient backend systems and cloud-native infrastructure from pilot to production scale. He has led full-stack and platform efforts across healthcare, finance, and genomics—most recently driving Optum Secure Visits to support 10,000+ caregivers while migrating CI/CD to GitHub Actions and container orchestration to Kubernetes. Jonathan combines deep Java/Spring Boot expertise with practical DevOps skills (Kubernetes, Grafana, Splunk, DNS and infra management) and a track record of improving performance and release velocity through automation and database tuning. He has led distributed teams, mentored junior developers, and reduced complex data processing windows from weeks to days at EMBL-EBI. Based in Lincoln, Nebraska, he brings a disciplined, security-conscious approach to modernizing legacy systems and shipping measurable operational improvements. A former DoD systems developer, he also understands high-assurance operational constraints that inform his pragmatic engineering decisions.
