Top SchoolLarry Staton is a versatile software developer and engineering leader with 16 years of experience building and modernizing web, desktop, and cloud applications from startup to enterprise scale. Combining a background in intellectual property law and economics with deep hands-on expertise in Clojure, Ruby/Rails, JavaScript/React, and cloud platforms, he excels at rearchitecting legacy systems, designing ETL pipelines, and shipping product-focused APIs and UIs. He has led and scaled engineering teams, introduced flow and value-driven practices like kanban and cost-of-delay, and automated CI/CD and provisioning with tools ranging from Babashka to Docker. Notably, he translated complex enterprise Java/Oracle systems into modern Rails/Postgres architectures and authored automation that replaced stored procedures with Sidekiq workers. Based in Orlando, he blends pragmatic engineering with product sensibility and a preference for immutable data and Lisp-inspired elegance—“parentheses are hugs for your code.”
