Senior🎓
Top SchoolKenneth Watka is a Senior Software Engineer with 14 years of hands-on experience building and maintaining backend services across industrial automation, healthcare, and cloud/ML platforms. He has moved from on-site systems integration and warehouse control software to developing production services at AWS, contributing to Amazon Fraud Detector and Personalize while working primarily in Java. Comfortable across C#, Python, and legacy C++, Kenneth pairs strong troubleshooting and networking skills with practical DevOps habits—extensive Docker use for testing and deployment is a recurring theme. He’s adept at integrating with complex third-party systems (notably EHRs like Epic) and translating customer requirements into reliable software. Now based in the Greater Pittsburgh region, he brings a pragmatic blend of field commissioning experience and cloud-scale engineering. A subtle strength is his track record of stepping between support, QA, and development roles, which gives him an unusually holistic view of software lifecycles.
