Senior🎓
Top SchoolPaul Stadig is an architect and seasoned software engineer with 17 years of experience building scalable backend systems, distributed event-processing pipelines, and web applications for both government and private industry. He holds a BS and MS in Computer Science and excels at rapidly learning and applying new technologies—particularly Clojure, distributed data stores, and search infrastructure. Paul has driven architecture and implementation work across startups and scaleups, re-architecting event systems and integrating ElasticSearch, Riak, and asynchronous messaging for higher throughput and reliability. He publishes focused Clojure e-books and contributes to the clojure-mode Emacs project, reflecting a deep commitment to language tooling and developer ergonomics. Comfortable leading remote, cross-continental teams, he prefers hands-on principal-engineer roles where technical depth and product impact align. Outside of work he stays close to the bleeding edge of CS topics like compilers, AI, and semantic web technologies, and would code for fun even if he didn’t need to work.
