Top SchoolNoel Smith is an experienced full-stack developer and adjunct professor based in Davis, CA, with 11 years of professional software experience and a deep academic foundation from a PhD in Mathematics. He has rebuilt legacy Java systems into MERN-stack applications, authored both REST and GraphQL APIs, and managed data migrations across diverse stores including MySQL, SQL Server, Elasticsearch, Neptune, MongoDB and S3. Skilled in Python, Java, JavaScript and C++, he pairs hands-on development with infrastructure and security operations—Terraform, Kubernetes, Flux, GuardDuty, Sophos, Jamf, Owasp Zap and Snyk feature in his toolset. A seasoned Linux administrator and database specialist, he’s equally comfortable writing backend services, tuning search and analytics with Elasticsearch, or teaching mathematics to undergraduates. Curious and committed to open source, he brings a researcher's rigor to practical, auditable systems and regular data migrations that keep test environments in sync with production.
