Justin H is a software engineer with nine years of technical experience and about four years focused on building scalable cloud-native systems using TypeScript, Java, and Python on AWS and Azure. He has a track record of shipping production services and tooling—leading cross-functional feature development, infrastructure migrations from on‑prem to AWS, and automations that measurably sped release cycles and developer productivity. At Amazon he reduced a macOS AWS CLI release process by half and accelerated project delivery by over 60% through prototyping and pragmatic tradeoffs; he also contributed to the upstream aws-cli codebase, improving EKS token handling and S3 docs. Comfortable both in code and in process, he has served as scrum master and on-call operator, and builds small scripting utilities (Bash/Python) that remove friction for teams. With a mechanical engineering background and aerospace manufacturing experience early in his career, he brings systems thinking and attention to manufacturability to complex software and infrastructure problems. Based in Seattle, he thrives on scaling challenges and turning operational pain points into repeatable, automated solutions.
