Senior🎓
Top SchoolJulien Negrotto is a freelance software engineer with 10+ years of experience building full-stack web applications, APIs, and SDKs—primarily with Ruby on Rails—across architectures from monoliths to SPAs. He brings deep operational knowledge from nearly a decade at Phaxio through two acquisitions (Inteliquent and Sinch), where he developed HIPAA-compliant features and proactively hardened systems against vulnerabilities, including mitigating the impact of a third-party zero-day. Comfortable in polyglot environments, Julien pairs Rails, PostgreSQL, Redis, and modern front-end tools like React, Stimulus, Turbo, Inertia, and Tailwind to deliver maintainable, performant software. He emphasizes security-first engineering, best practices, and mentoring, helping teams share knowledge and continuously improve processes. Based in Baton Rouge, he thrives in remote, cross-functional collaborations and enjoys tackling complex problems that require both pragmatic engineering and long-term maintainability.
