Top SchoolLyndsy Simon is a Principal Software Engineer with 14 years of experience building and stabilizing service-oriented systems, currently based in Harrison, Arkansas. He excels at refactoring legacy code and designing pragmatic, event-driven architectures—most recently leading the design and rollout of an Amazon EventBridge-based async platform and AI-focused developer tooling. A hands-on generalist who prefers owning both implementation and support, he’s shipped production features in domains from healthcare communications to consumer subscriptions and contributed backend improvements and user-merge tooling to the Center for Open Science’s widely used OSF project. Outside work he runs a photography business, which reflects his penchant for learning new tools through personal projects and applying them professionally.
