Senior🎓
Top SchoolLance Purple is a Sr. Software Engineer based in Austin with nearly three decades of software experience and nine years focused on Java and directory services. He currently helps resolve production issues and deliver fixes for the Ping Directory product line, drawing on prior roles designing automated tests, REST APIs, UIs, and high-performance network monitoring agents at Ping, IBM, and UnboundID. Lance combines deep systems-level expertise (C/C++, JNI, protocol inspection) with full-stack skills (Java, Groovy, JavaScript, SQL) and a strong track record of collaborating with support and end-users to ship practical solutions. He prefers agile, colocated teams and learning new technologies that directly solve business problems, and he graduated from UT Austin with a 3.85 GPA. Less visible but notable: he has repeatedly worked on low-overhead monitoring and cross-platform tooling that operated at scale and in constrained production environments.
