San Francisco, California, United States
Summary
👤
SeniorPaul Howell is a Senior Software Engineer in San Francisco with two decades of networking and systems experience and a decade focused on software engineering, specializing in Go and Python for scalable, decoupled systems. He has led teams and built production-grade infrastructure—co-designing an asynchronous, resumable workflow orchestrator at Unity and contributing network observability tooling and Prometheus exporters for Kubernetes. At Google now, he brings a background that spans hands-on network automation at Salesforce to top-of-rack and data center buildouts, giving him rare cross-domain expertise in both networking and distributed software. A self-taught, fast learner and avid reader, he excels at turning complex operational requirements into resilient, testable systems and quietly prefers building pragmatic tooling that surfaces hard-to-see network and performance issues.
