Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolParker Hewitt is a backend engineer with nine years of software development experience spanning machine vision, full-stack web, blockchain infrastructure, and cloud-native systems on AWS and GCP. He has built everything from WordPress sites and Django deployments to C#/.NET machine-vision controllers for 6-axis robots and distributed microservices on Kubernetes. At ShapeShift he focused on SRE work—improving reliability, observability, and developer productivity with tools like Terraform, Pulumi, PostgreSQL, Redis, and Go—and now contributes backend systems at Sleeper. Pragmatic and entrepreneurial, he cares about well-architected production stacks end-to-end, from infra to UI/UX, and enjoys learning new technologies and collaborating on inventive solutions. A detail that often surprises collaborators: his roots in low-level robotics and machine vision give him a practical edge when integrating hardware, legacy systems, and modern cloud services.
