Summary
Michael Vieth is a Principal Software Engineer with 12 years of experience building and scaling distributed systems, developer platforms, and product-critical services from cloud infrastructure to SDKs and frontends. He excels at turning ambiguous business needs into reliable production software, with deep hands-on expertise in Kubernetes, serverless (Cloud Run), Postgres performance, high-throughput queues, and multi-cloud automation. His recent roles include leading full-stack feature delivery and data/LLM pipelines, plus designing developer surfaces and CI/CD automation that materially reduced engineering time. Michael pairs platform-level architecture with mentoring and developer-experience improvements, having built deployment scaffolding, Spinnaker-based microservice flows, and observability for async systems. He also brings entrepreneurial grit from co-founding a startup that shipped a public iOS app and production Kubernetes services, and maintains an interest in storage, data science, and bioinformatics projects. Based in Denver, he combines product sensibility with pragmatic engineering to deliver measurable impact across teams.
