Paul Pacheco is a seasoned software engineer and analyst with 15 years of experience blending backend development, QA/test automation, and DevOps practices. Based in Wylie, Texas, he coaches teams at American Airlines on CI/CD, TDD, pair programming and cloud workflows while contributing hands-on code and tests. His open-source work spans high-profile projects—improving Akka-Spring integration and strengthening Unity networking stacks (Netcode for GameObjects, Mirror, Telepathy)—where he focused on interoperability, reliability, and load-tested performance. Comfortable across C#, Java/Scala, and tooling around Docker and self-hosted CI runners, he often tackles platform-specific build and dependency challenges. Known for pragmatic fixes that unblock teams (e.g., test-suite stabilization and rootless Docker/SELinux compatibility), he brings a practical, quality-first engineering mindset.
