Summary
Lisa Dean is a Staff Software Engineer in Atlanta with over two decades in IT and 11 years focused on software engineering, blending deep front-end expertise (React, TypeScript, Apollo/GraphQL) with a systems-and-security background from roles in system administration and information security. At Ferguson Enterprises she led migrations from ASP.NET to modern React/GraphQL stacks for high-traffic e-commerce sites, improving speed and SEO while coaching teams on an internal framework for Build.com’s React rollout. Comfortable across the full stack and infrastructure — from Node and PostgreSQL to AWS, VMware, and PowerShell — she excels in environments that demand autonomous learning and pragmatic technical leadership. She pairs a methodical, ops-informed approach with a playful curiosity (dabbling in IoT, Taiko drumming, and game design), which helps her spot practical optimizations others might miss.
