Matthew Dias is a Lead Engineer with 11 years of hands-on experience building data- and event-driven web and mobile applications across Ruby on Rails, Node.js, Java, and Python stacks. He combines backend expertise and advanced SQL skills with polished frontend work in React, Ember, and Vue to turn complex datasets into intuitive, high-performance user experiences. At HealthMine and Kitsu he shipped full‑stack features that improved engagement and operational workflows, and at Stitch Fix he now leads engineering efforts at scale. Matthew also designs for constrained environments—contributing keyboard firmware keymaps to the popular QMK project—and has produced a commercially successful Android app that reached 1,000+ users in two months. Comfortable across infrastructure from Docker and AWS to Heroku and NGINX, he pairs product-minded engineering with a track record of open-source contributions across many languages.
