Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolNathan Brockway is a software engineer based in Dallas with nine years of experience building backend systems, game engine experiments, and hardware-software integrations. He blends practical algorithm design and analytics with full-stack development—contributing backend features to the open-source Highlight.io monitoring platform, including GraphQL schema work and session/error tracking. Comfortable across systems from computer architecture to networking and security, he has applied that breadth at companies from Leonardo DRS to startups and university research roles. A maker at heart, he prototyped Unity3D ideas, performance algorithms, and web projects outside coursework, and his Github interest in "everything binary" reflects a low-level curiosity that informs his higher-level design.

Contributions summary:Nathan implemented features for excluding user properties, which involved modifications to the GraphQL schema, resolvers, and input types within the backend code. They also added functionality to track session-related properties, including the creation of separate functions for track and session properties and a new enum for session properties. Furthermore, the user was responsible for integrating errors into the backend by adding an errors endpoint and hooking it into the push payload functionality. The contributions demonstrate an understanding of backend architecture and data management within the Highlight.io platform.
