Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolNick Adams is a Staff Software Engineer with 12+ years of experience building resilient back-end systems using Go, Elixir, TypeScript, Java, and relational databases. He favors pragmatic, production-focused solutions—whether adding a memory ballast to tame GC in high-throughput services or re-architecting deployments to eliminate developer wait time with GitLab merge trains. At Divvy he led efforts to expose a public GraphQL surface from the same codebase used internally and delivered greenfield Kafka-to-Salesforce integrations within months of joining. He mentors junior engineers, champions testable service architectures, and consistently automates CI/CD and deployment workflows to reduce operational overhead. Based in Sandy, Utah, Nick combines deep backend engineering with a track record of shipping measurable improvements to performance, reliability, and developer productivity. An avid polyglot, he quickly adopts languages and patterns that solve the problem rather than the latest trend.
