Summary
👤
SeniorMartin Halliday is a Principal Engineer based in Vancouver with over a decade of experience designing and scaling high-traffic web platforms and distributed systems. He has led architecture and engineering at consumer-scale businesses—most recently Narvar and Realtor.com—shaping micro-frontend platforms, service mesh, edge caching and API gateway strategies that underpin large ecommerce and real-estate sites. His background spans founder/CTO and chief architect roles where he migrated data centers to the cloud, re-architected monoliths into modular services, and delivered systems handling millions of daily requests. Colleagues rely on him for pragmatic technical leadership that balances product, business and customer needs while mentoring engineering teams. Less obvious: he repeatedly steps between executive strategy and hands-on coding, preferring to refocus on system design when it maximizes impact. His career shows a consistent emphasis on operational efficiency and scalable architecture for revenue-critical web services.
