Juniper Alcorn is a Senior Software Engineer with seven years of full-stack experience, currently building APIs and features at Virta Health after shaping product and infrastructure at OrbitalRX. Comfortable across Go, React/React Native, Python/Django, GraphQL and Postgres, she moves between backend endpoints and polished front-end components to help teams hit deadlines and ship reliable releases. Her PhD in Philosophy and background as a college lecturer give her a rare strength in translating complex technical tradeoffs into clear prioritization and stakeholder communication. She’s hands-on with AWS and Terraform, has modernized legacy React apps with hooks and testing, and pairs fast feature delivery with attention to reusable design. Colleagues benefit from her teacher’s instinct for mentoring and her appetite for continuous learning.
