Summary
Max Clarke is a senior full-stack engineer with 11 years of hands-on experience building scalable, metrics-driven development tools and delivery pipelines, currently shaping platform and product work at Workiva. He specializes in Dart/React/JavaScript front-ends and Python/Django and Java back-ends, with deep practical experience in PostgreSQL, Docker microservices, CI/CD, and pragmatic API security. Max emphasizes continuous delivery, test-driven development, and code review cultures that prioritize quality without slowing shipping, and he’s equally comfortable contributing in teams of three or across organizations of hundreds. Notably, he blends engineering with curiosity—once exploiting an unsecured web API in a USB bot exercise—to harden systems and evangelize better security and testing practices. Based in Scottsdale, AZ, he pairs product-minded thinking with a history of eCommerce and analytics work that brings measurable impact to user-facing features.
