Summary
Morgan Szafranski is a Staff Software Engineer with nine years of experience building scalable backend systems, developer tooling, and notification/chat infrastructure at ClickUp. He has a proven record of cutting latency and build times—architecting a 20x latency improvement and saving 50+ minutes per CI build—while driving developer efficiency through tooling like git worktree helpers. Comfortable across languages and stacks, Morgan has delivered end-to-end features, orchestrated microservice migrations, and reduced client downtime dramatically in prior roles. A natural teacher and mentor, he routinely onboarded engineers and produced technical documentation to spread knowledge. Outside core engineering he brings entrepreneurial grit from running an 11-year window-cleaning business and a curiosity for linguistics and CTF-style security challenges that inform his practical, security-minded approach.
