Summary
Nicholas Sladic is a Software Engineer II based in Cincinnati with a decade of hands-on experience building and operating cloud-native systems, distributed data platforms, and user-facing applications. He has a strong track record driving migrations and architectures—co-leading a zero-downtime NoSQL migration, cutting cloud costs by 50% through Kubernetes rearchitecture, and implementing 2FA with customer-facing QA tooling. Comfortable across the full stack, he has built React/TypeScript front ends, GraphQL/Node backends, and AWS-based real-time anomaly detection and observability pipelines. Nicholas combines production-focused DevOps practices (GKE, image maintenance, CVE remediation, on-call PagerDuty experience) with product-minded feature delivery from his work in education and consumer IoT. He pairs a technical CS foundation and business technology certification with a pragmatic curiosity—often automating verification and testing (k6 load tests, QA tools) to ensure reliability at scale.
