Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMatt Holland is a senior software engineer based in Vancouver with 11 years of professional experience building everything from research prototypes to high-traffic web applications, currently specializing in React-driven front ends. He has a strong full-stack background—having implemented Java Spring/Akka backends, Jersey REST APIs, PostgreSQL schemas, and serverless Node.js microservices—while repeatedly modernizing legacy stacks (GWT/JSPM/Browserify → React/Webpack). At Jane.app and previously at studios like Animal Logic and AppNeta he shipped reusable component libraries, improved performance at scale, and introduced tooling such as Storybook and Jest to speed development and testing. He pairs hands-on coding with systems thinking (Kafka + Elasticsearch POCs, render-farm orchestration) and routinely mentors teams through architecture and migration efforts. A pragmatic problem-solver, he often surfaces non-obvious wins by integrating developer experience improvements that accelerate delivery as much as feature work.
