Summary
Kenneth Dombrowski is an independent senior developer and engineering mentor in New York with 14 years of professional experience evolving from full‑stack and backend roles to services architecture, data engineering, and platform/DevOps leadership. He specializes in Python-based web and data systems, bringing a testing-first mindset to improve testability, scalability, and maintainability across smaller teams where cross-functional impact is greatest. Kenneth has a track record of building CI/CD and platform tooling, containerizing services, and creating bespoke test and regression frameworks that catch subtle data-access and performance regressions. He’s led migrations from external consultants to in‑house teams, introduced engineering practices like Kanban and feature-branch workflows, and trained data scientists on reproducible platform tooling. Passionate about applying technology to better humanity, he seeks long-term partnerships and enjoys mentoring juniors while iterating on process and automation.
