Summary
Jordan Peterson is a Senior Software Engineer with 11+ years of experience building scalable, production-grade systems and developer tooling across startups and enterprises. He blends application development (React, TypeScript, Go, Ruby/Rails, Python) with strong operational expertise in Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform, and cloud platforms (AWS, Azure), making him comfortable owning both code and infrastructure. At Getty Images he helps ingest and scale global editorial and creative assets, and his background in systems architecture and SRE roles means he thinks deeply about availability, capacity planning, and automation. He’s equally at home improving front-end UX and implementing resilient back-end pipelines, and brings practical experience migrating complex enterprise services with zero downtime. Based in Madison, WI, Jordan pairs technical breadth with a communicator’s mindset—from documentation to cross-team collaboration—and, as a small personal touch, asks recruiters to prove they “love potatoes” to get past his filters.
