Summary
Kolton Gagnon is a software engineering leader with 11 years of experience specializing in developer experience, AI-assisted workflows, and cross-functional execution. He blends product, design, and engineering to turn prototypes into scalable web and mobile systems—shipping React Native apps with offline support, architecting migrations from monoliths to microservices, and implementing CI/CD and observability to boost reliability. At Swing Education he drove a 10x velocity initiative and cut expansion timelines by 75% with a configurable onboarding system; at Homebound he slashed end-to-end processing by 84% through cross-stack optimizations. Currently building AI-powered browser extensions and automation at Tango, he focuses on dependable DOM interaction, state-machine orchestration, and guardrails for AI code generation to preserve performance and user trust. Colleagues rely on him not just for execution but for durable technical and operational systems—and he’s equally at home mentoring teams and modernizing tooling to amplify delivery.
