Summary
Leah Garrison is a Senior Full Stack Software Engineer with a decade of hands-on experience building scalable web and data pipeline systems across Node.js/TypeScript, React, and cloud platforms (AWS and GCP). She co-created Tapestry, an open-source pipeline orchestration framework that automates warehouse-centric data ingestion and syncing, and built its CLI, deployment automation, and observability dashboard. In production roles she has driven end-to-end features, CI/CD automation, and database migrations (NoSQL→SQL), often reducing manual effort through automation like healthcare prior-authorization scrapers that saved thousands of manpower hours. Comfortable across backend, frontend, and infrastructure, Leah regularly containerizes and automates complex deployments (Docker, ECS/Fargate, CloudFormation) while improving developer ergonomics with modern ORMs and testing practices. Based in Atlanta, she pairs product-focused engineering with clear documentation and tutorial content, making her work easy to adopt by teammates and users.
