Summary
Matthew Newman is a senior full-stack engineer and founder with 8 years of focused software experience and a longer history in technical roles, known for migrating legacy systems to cloud-native microservices and building resilient event-driven platforms. He architects and implements production systems using Python and TypeScript, with hands-on experience across FastAPI/Flask, Django REST, React/Vue/Svelte, Kafka, and AWS serverless deployments. At Elevance he led a next-best-action system processing millions of events per day, and through his consultancy Newmanium he has shipped end-to-end web apps combining numerical libraries, JWT security, and CI/CD on AWS Lambda. A strong proponent of test-driven development and maintainable code (pytest, mypy, black/ruff), he pairs technical leadership with mentorship and remote team collaboration. Based in Bangor, Maine, he blends startup founder grit with enterprise-scale architecture, and often surfaces practical optimizations from finance and data-heavy projects that others overlook.
