Michael Hagar is a Senior Software Engineer in Austin with 12 years of experience building reliable, performance-oriented systems across web, embedded, and instrumentation domains. He currently contributes to Zoom after driving significant backend and frontend improvements at SchoolAdmin—cutting client JS payloads in half, speeding slow pages by seconds, and automating dependency and security checks. Prior roles at National Instruments show deep systems and tooling expertise: shipping a LabVIEW web runtime, integrating customer metrics, and raising C++ test coverage above 90%. Michael favors reducing complexity and increasing feedback, and he pairs hands-on coding in C#, C++, Ruby, and JavaScript with process and CI improvements that prevent regressions. He’s equally comfortable owning low-level synchronization features (TSN APIs) and smoothing operational burdens for support and product teams, a blend that makes him valuable on both greenfield and hardening efforts.
