Paul Savignano is a hands-on engineering leader and founder with 11 years of software experience building fast, scalable systems and developer-friendly platforms from the API to the UI. He led engineering at A Place for Mom, architecting messaging, geo-search, and compliance systems that cut costs by ~$50k/month, scaled message volume 140%, and maintained 100% uptime by moving core infrastructure to AWS (ECS Fargate, Lambda, Mongo). Equally comfortable in TypeScript/Node/GraphQL and React, Paul has a track record of shipping event-driven architectures, real-time data sync, and admin tools while reducing delivery times and deployment friction via CI/CD. He founded Savignano.io to accelerate delivery for SMBs with reusable full‑stack frameworks and now runs Aviara Tech to explore sensor-driven mobile products for health and performance. Paul combines product-focused engineering with cross-functional collaboration (Legal, Marketing, Product) and a mentoring mindset, making him effective both as a technical architect and a hands-on contributor.
