Summary
Mark Smith is a Principal Software Engineer with over 16 years of experience building large-scale analytics and enterprise CRM systems, currently driving architecture and delivery at Tanium. He blends modern full‑stack expertise (React, Angular, Node.js, Kafka, Spark) with deep legacy knowledge (Java, Spring, Oracle), enabling smooth migrations and pragmatic platform evolution. Mark has repeatedly built high-velocity teams and production Big Data pipelines—at Bronto he scaled a streaming platform to process billions of messages per day and led a UI rewrite to a React/Redux SPA. He’s comfortable wearing both hands-on and leadership hats, from on-call DevOps duties to serving as site director and architecture council member. Based in Wake Forest, NC, he pairs a developer’s craft with an operator’s focus on observability and stability, and is known for mentoring teams to deliver measurable Agile improvements.
