Senior🎓
Top SchoolMatthew Howa is a senior full stack engineer with 11 years of experience building web and data-driven applications, currently leading full stack efforts at Traeger Pellet Grills from Salt Lake City. He brings a blend of research-grade rigor—stemming from master's-level work on large-node network visualization at the University of Utah—and practical product experience delivering projects for clients like Netflix and Nike while at Underbelly. Comfortable across the stack, he has roots in CRM systems and startup development through motionSlice/CustomerDynamics and has run a design-and-print business, giving him a rare mix of technical depth and hands-on product operations. Known for a pragmatic, independence-minded approach (he “codes for freedom”), he focuses on shipping reliable systems rather than vendor conversations.
