Summary
Michael Cooper is a full-stack developer based in Sydney with 11 years of experience building scalable web applications and microservices across startups and enterprise teams, currently contributing at Atlassian. He has a pragmatic polyglot background—JavaScript (ES8+), Ruby, Go, Node.js—and hands-on experience with React/Redux, Docker, CI/CD (Buildkite), Elasticsearch, Redis and both Postgres and MongoDB. Michael moved into software after completing General Assembly's immersive bootcamp and has since driven migrations and architecture work (notably a MongoDB→Postgres migration and microservice implementations at Ordermentum). He combines frontend pedigree from large-scale Angular/React projects with backend API design, and brings an uncommon blend of product-facing implementation and operational rigor from roles in compliance and SaaS implementations. Known in the local tech community for continual learning, he focuses on maintainable systems and pragmatic tooling choices that accelerate delivery.
