Nelson Schoenbrot is a Senior Software Engineer based in New York with a decade of experience building and modernizing backend systems across finance, healthcare, and data privacy platforms. He has a strong Java/Spring pedigree and practical experience migrating legacy RPC and orchestration systems to modern stacks like gRPC and Kubernetes, plus hands-on work in Python, Node.js, and TypeScript. At Ethyca he improved CI/CD quality controls and built an application-level encryption migration framework, demonstrating attention to secure data handling and operational robustness. Nelson has repeatedly been brought into high-stakes environments (Mastercard, Goldman Sachs, E*TRADE) to untangle tech debt and delivery-critical integrations, and he’s comfortable reviewing and lifting contributions from distributed teams. He started his career in media and tooling for streaming and time-series, which gives him an appreciation for performant, production-grade services beyond pure enterprise CRUD. Practical, detail-oriented, and security-minded, he blends legacy-system fluency with modern cloud-native practices.
