Summary
Kielan Sullivan is a Software Engineer II with nine years of hands-on experience building backend services and data pipelines using Java, Ruby, Python, and SQL. He has delivered integrations for healthcare and insurance domains—most recently streamlining Medicare Advantage quoting/enrollment and D-SNP eligibility tooling—while also resolving customer-facing production issues. His work spans Spring Boot microservices, Kafka-to-GCP migrations, Apache Spark pipelines, and ETL systems that persist to Oracle and AWS-backed storage. He brings practical DevOps experience from CloudFormation, Spinnaker, and CI/CD tooling, plus a track record of modernizing legacy Rails apps to current stacks. Based in Norwalk, Iowa, Kielan pairs large-enterprise rigor from Cerner with client-focused consulting at Improving and hands-on product ownership at Spring Venture Group. An often-overlooked strength is his cross-functional background—ranging from student IT operations to leading kitchen teams—that supports clear communication and fast incident response.
